Description

Hi,

in my header.php I open the body-tag in in my footer.php I close it. But html-minifier removes this tag in my footer.php because it can't find the opening-tag in the same file.

Is there a way to enable this function?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the case described across header.php and footer.php, where the body tag is opened in one file and closed in the other. Read the HTML minifier behavior around document fragments and determine whether an option can preserve the closing tag; done means the footer.php closing tag is retained without breaking minification.
