    The only thing I want to ask about this is this line:

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

    Why would this not be part of an extended namespace, aka:

<x xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

    The entire point of the x tag was for exactly this.  What happens next
year when everyone starts formating in 'Joes script of the year'?  By adding
a tag specifically for a given display type, it's locking down the protocol.
