I would be happy to know why this whole element:
<span classFOO="hiddenStructure">param1: FOO</span>

The only thing I know is that classFOO is an illegal attribute for the
element span.
I suspect now that crediting the removal if this kind of element to tidy
seems to be false guess. So, how get's that removed?
As I understand it, the MediaWiki software itself, specifically
Sanitizer::fixTagAttributes(), removes illegal attributes. See
http://wikipedia.sourceforge.net/doc/MediaWiki/Parser/Sanitizer.html#method…
. Hopefully, somebody will correct me when I am wrong.
