I suspect that every bit of that particular "view source" result is actually just in the imagination of the browser.  The browser "view source" feature has long been a bit of a lie, generating something that is rather similar to the actual source downloaded but that is actually at least partially generated by "reverse parsing" the data structure the browser built from the actual HTML source (and probably javascript manipulations).
