I think hgroup can be removed from js/html5-respond.js & js/html5.js now that it's no longer in the HTML5 spec:

I think this isn't exactly a Zen specific issue. The creators of Zen are just providing the option for us to use these IE helpers, they did not actually write them. Those projects have their own authors and are maintained on GitHub.

https://github.com/aFarkas/html5shiv

So you could put the request in on those sites, but I kinda doubt those authors would remove hgroup from the projects so they can maintain backward compatibility for people who did use hgroup over the last few years as the HTML5 spec was getting fleshed out.

Makes sense. I've added a note to those issues.

EDIT: Interesting feedback from the html5shiv issue queue "You may also want to update your other tickets with the correction that the WHATWG spec has not removed and the W3C has yet to replace it with a suitable counterpart."

Closing this in favour of fixing it upstream.
