Is that intentional? Not really. It's not clear, in retrospect, that requiring conformance to CHARMOD is helpful. I don't really see a strong argument for referring to CHARMOD in HTML5 at this point. The majority of the conformance requirements on content and implementations that affect interoperability are explicitly listed in HTML5 in more detail. The rest are things I don't really agree with anyway.
