Description
HTML Validation needs to be tuned for scenarios when someone types outside the <html> tags.
When typing before the <html> tag, the error is incorrect and complains of a missing <title> tag:

When typing after the <html> tag, no error is thrown:

Research direction
Open the two linked popcode.org snapshots first and reproduce validation when typing before and after the tag. Trace the HTML Validation entry point responsible for these messages, then verify that content outside the tags produces the correct errors in both scenarios without the incorrect missing-title behavior.
