Henri... Nobody's editing html with php inside through a http pipe.
It's local storage and your comment does not stand here.

 From a web author's perpective, the fact that a html instance containing
a php PI won't be editable as a polyglot document is a severe limiting
factor to the usefulness of polyglot documents.
