Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in an Aztec editor instance with HTML containing head, body, or table tags, then trace the HTML parsing and rendering entry point. Done means these container tags are hidden while their contents render, matching the Android behavior; add or update regression coverage if the relevant test area is found.
