What do you mean by "HTML tag standard compliant"?
Since we doesn't have a XML document here I'm fine with just <br>. There is really no need to "fix" such things.

You're right, I thought HTML5 would require properly closing all tags. Nevertheless there are the "WordPress Coding standards": Self-closing Elements (http://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/coding-standards/html/#self-closing-elements). Secondly it's the only br tag in the whole code base that's not self closed. So at least it should be fixed for consistency.
