I think the problem is, that there is no doctype to copy and paste.

Probably it's the region I live, germany. Our most successful HTML guide 
is SELFHTML. It does mention 4.01 doctypes in the beginning, but doesn't 
use doctypes in most examples. A revised version is already in the works 
though.

But I don't want to blame anyone. I'll ask the next time I encounter 
someone using an HTML 4.0 doctype.

Anyway, Simon convinced my that changing this part of the doctype switch 
would cause harm than good.
