Hi,
This is a QA Review comment for "XHTML 2.0"

About http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-xhtml2-20060726/mod-styleSheet.html#sec_29.1.
XHTML 2.0 has defined Embedding attributes module, to make it possible to use src/srctype. Though the style element is using type instead of srctype, which is at least confusing, and likely to create mistakes for people using it. Being consistent for the name of attributes would improve the usability of the language.
Example given in the specification
<style src="style.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
Why not?
<style src="style.css" srctype="text/css" media="screen" />
plus the fact that the style element accepts the Embedding attribute. It means it is possible to write things like:
<style src="style"
srctype="text/css"
type="application/xml"
media="screen" />
