Short-name + title:
"Polyglot XHTML. HTML Compatible XML Documents."
Justification: The title should express the basic principle - XML docs
authored as HTML compatible. The title – "HTML compatible XML
documents" – does that. The short-name – "Polyglot XHTML" – usefully
expresses this principle in two words.
Positive side effects:
1) XML + HTML + XHTML combined into a meaningful name.
2) Possible to associate from "Appendix _C_" to "Compatible".
