No, I want to replace <!DOCTYPE - with something completely different,
the whole point that anything that looks like an SGML (or XHTML)
doctype will confuse users into thinking that it is an application of
SGML.

I see no reason to continue only the odd model of rendering mode
switching  - especially without what this is exactly being defined in
the spec. when as only new implementations will be written supporting
WF2  a simple <html WHATversion="2"> like mechanism can be used, this
will leave it in a much stronger position for going forward.
