see the example given under reproducibility

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. load the test html document given below into firefox.

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Strict//EN"
       "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>test</title>
</head>
<body>
<p><a href="#chap02">chapter 2</a></p>
<h2><a name="chap02">chapter 2</a></h2>
</body>
</html>
2. write this document to disc via File >> Save Page As. As file type choose
"text files", i.e., the document is should be converted from html to text. 


Actual Results:  
This is the contents of the file saved:

chapter 2 <#chap02>


    chapter 2


Expected Results:  
In the text file, I expect all tags to be completely removed. Hence, the string
"<#chap02>" should be dropped.
