 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 &copy; 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.
