Details
If you open view-source:data:text/html;charset=utf-8,%3C%21DOCTYPE%20html%3E%3Ctitle%3Etest%3C%2Ftitle%3E%3Ctable%3E%3Ccaption%3E%3Ctr%3E%3Ctd%3E%3C%2Ftable%3E in Firefox you’ll see the <tr> start tag is displayed in red, and if you mouse over it, you’ll see a tooltip with the error text «Stray start tag “tr”.»
But due to https://github.com/whatwg/html/commit/759ee62, the HTML spec now allows the </caption> end tag to be omitted, and the HTML parsing algorithm no longer defines the case of a </caption> end tag as a parse error.
Therefore, Firefox should not render that <tr> start tag in red, and no error text should be shown.

I failed to locate this bug when migrating the patch. Sorry.
