Unless someone is actually attacking people, there's no reason to send input this broken, because it won't look like anything useful on browsers which don't crash. Furthermore, crashing browsers isn't really all that bad, provided that they crash cleanly (by referencing a pointer initialized to NULL, e.g.). When I was using an old version of Konqueror, it would crash reasonably frequently, and I'd restart it and avoid the site that did it.
