Mkdocs strips <caption> tag from markdown files

[fbuchinger]

Steps to reproduce

1. In a new directory, create mkdocs.yml with the following content site_name: Mkdocs CaptionStrip

2. In the same directory, create docs/index.md with following content

   # Caption Visibility Test
   <caption style="display:none">you should not see this - caption</caption>
   <cite style="display:none">you should not see this - cite</cite>

3. In the directory, run mkdocs serve and open localhost:8000

Expected behaviour

Both captions are invisible (due to css styling)

Actual behaviour

Only second caption (cite tag) is invisible.

mkdocs version

1.5.2 /Python 3.10

Why is this an issue

I want to hide tags in a converted markdown file as the images for the caption are not available yet.

This has nothing to do with MkDocs, and everything to do with how a browser may handle the the tag as you are using it.
