Here's a test.xml which has no XHTML or indeed any namespace usage and still 
works with the test.html from my last mail:

   <!DOCTYPE root [
     <!ATTLIST root identifier ID #IMPLIED>
   ]>
   <root identifier="one"/>

This works in Gecko and Opera.  I don't have Safari on hand right this second.

That would be a quite separate issue from the "I don't seem to recall this 
working; have you tested it?" with implications of incompetence thing that you 
initially raised....
