It's quite hard to imagine that average Joe (sorry to all Joes) Web
developer who can't produce neither valid HTML nor well-formed XML will
be able to produce polyglot markup which puts even more constraints on
syntax.
Clearly there are some scenarios where polyglot makes sense, but
polyglot shouldn't be considered more then that.
