WebCore/html/HTML5Lexer.cpp:891
 +                      source.advanceAndASSERTIgnoringCase('d');
Seems it would be simple to write a little helper method (static inline) which did:

static inline void advanceAndASSERTIgnoringCase(SegmentedString& string, char* assertionString)
{
    for (int x = 0;; x++) {
        if (!assertionString[x])
             return;
        string.advanceAndASSERTIngoringCase(assertionString[x]);
     }
}

That would read much cleaner in the callsites.

WebCore/html/HTML5TreeBuilder.cpp:100
 +      if (token.type() == HTML5Token::Uninitialized)
This seems wrong.

WebCore/platform/text/SegmentedString.h:154
 +      void advanceAndASSERTIgnoringCase(UChar expectedCharacter)
We may just want to turn this into a static inline in HTML5Lexer.cpp instead.

I think we need one more round.

Would be nice if we had a version of this which took a const String& so we didn't have to write "public" twice:

 1078                         advanceStringAndASSERTIgnoringCase(source, "public");


othewrise looks good.

Seems silly to intentionally violate style just to match the spec wording.

This might be a premature optimization, but I'm worried about all the string null checks...

My hope is that this problem will be sovled once we convert to using goto.
