So how does that work for text/xml? Do you dispatch on namespace of
the root element? If the root element is html in the HTML namespace,
you have that behavior, and otherwise you return the root element
itself? At least thus far we have cared a great deal about not
introducing more differences between HTML and XHTML than necessary. I
could see us caring less about it now though.
