What are the issue with putting markup outside <body>?

I have a bookmarklet storing a lot of DOM data, but I would love to avoid to put them out of the body tag so the script in the page won't mess with it.

Semantic value is not an issue for once, but I would like to know :

Result of some little testing :

  • Firefox won't display a big red DIV if it's after </body>
  • Firefox won't run alert() from a SCRIPT if it's after </body>
  • Firebug don't see them but display the famous Firebug DIV after </body>

Everything inside the <html> tag (even if outside the <body> tag) can be accessed via document.documentElement.
