Noted, thanks for the heads up. So far I've tried to keep the  
validator.nu instance as vanilla as possible, so hopefully that change  
will not bite. Note that I plan to push the new version of the markup  
validator, including the plug to validator.nu, either to a production  
release or to a beta test, within the next 2-3 weeks, so notice of any  
kind of "dangerous" change will be welcome indeed.

Many thanks,
