My vote goes to trusting the user, eg. behaving based on the options.
At least something needs to be done, currently eg. the "Show source"
option does practically nothing. If a document doesn't validate, the
source is displayed, whether the option was selected or not [1]. And
the other way around if the document validates.
[1] Exception to the rule: if the doctype is not specified for a
document, then the "Show source" checkbox works according to the
choice.
