IIRC the reason was the encoding support and entity handling. Tidy's
-raw option did not work for several 8-bit encodings because tidy
always expands a numerical entity into a raw character at the parsing
stage, so entities such as © are broken (it will typically be
converted to corresponding raw iso8859-1 characters) in the output
HTML file.
I know the latest version of tidy has preserveEntities option but not
sure if it works with encodings which did not work with the old tidy.
I will give it a try.
