Re-adding @profile as per HTML 4.01 (+ errata as described in the 
attachment) would work for me as well; and it would make it easier to 
resolve <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/tracker/issues/82>.

A separate spec would then only be needed for additional features we've 
been thinking about, such as allowing @profile everywhere.
