The answer to this latter question is given in the spec. Furthermore, in order 
to disseminate the information how to author HTML 5 documents more widely, a 
separate, informative, document is being written to be specifically targeted at 
authors. This document will only describe things that authors need to know and 
will not talk about implementation requirements.

I really don't see where the notion that HTML 5 fails to specify how authors are 
supposed to construct conforming documents has come from; it is, as far as I can 
tell, simply untrue.
