Some templates have an empty 'div'. Well, actually, this is not a problem. However, what came to my attention was the value for the 'class' attribute of those empty 'div': 'outro'. Well, it looks as a Portuguese word (it means 'other', in English). Maybe using the English word would be a better choice.

Another point about the 'outro' is that I couldn't find a reference about it in the cascade stylesheets. May be those 'div' can be safely removed after all.

# grep -r outro *
template/en/default/index.html.tmpl:  <div class="outro"></div>
template/en/default/global/footer.html.tmpl:  <div class="outro"></div>
template/en/default/global/banner.html.tmpl:    <div class="outro"></div>

Reproducible: Always

For reference, "outro" is the opposite of "intro," in English.

Now things make sense and the bug may be marked as invalid.  Google really shows several intro/outro references. However, dict.org shows just intro. Intro is very easy to figure out (Introduction), but Outro... Outroduction? Both can't be found on dict.org, dictionary.cambridge.org and so on. Jargons must be used carefully.

--> invalid as per comment 2

the divs are there to extend what can be styled with alternative css skins.
