[Bug 5987] New: ?Namespace Found in non-XML Document? should not be triggered in HTML5 mode

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5987

           Summary: “Namespace Found in non-XML Document” should not be
                    triggered in HTML5 mode
           Product: Validator
           Version: HEAD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: HTML5
        AssignedTo: ot@w3.org
        ReportedBy: ot@w3.org
         QAContact: www-validator-cvs@w3.org


If forcing Doctype to HTML5, the validator switches to HTML5 mode, which is !=
XML, hence triggering some warnings such as “Namespace Found in non-XML
Document”. 

e.g:
http://qa-dev.w3.org/wmvs/HEAD/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F&doctype=HTML5

These warnings should be filtered out, since HTML5 mode covers both XML and
non-XML. 

Implementation: either change from the model of "mode" being TBD, SGML, XML or
HTML5, or change the triggers for the warning.
