It's practically reincarnating sloppiness, admitting defeat with XHTML, this time trying to formalise how to handle slop so at least we do it all the same. (But last time I looked, it didn't handle slop the same way as certain major browsers, but rather according to what the HTML5 authors thought would be sensible, so that part seems doomed to be not implemented according to spec, but as Yet Another incompatible compatibility layer in real browsers.) -- Jamie
