Hi.

I created a grunt plugin that runs htmllint for locales HTML files created by custom nodes and so on.

With this, you can easily check that the tags are not closed or that they are not used as HTML structures.

See [grunt-nr-locales-htmllint](https://www.npmjs.com/package/grunt-nr-locales-htmllint) for details.

## Example

run grunt

In fact the type "text/x-red" is historical. You can now change that to "text/html" and your normal linter should work. We are changing files to that as we need to rather than change all at once.

Thank you very much! That's very good information for me.

From now on, I will do that too.
