Perhaps if the validator had an /option/ that turned on/off > this mode, then the user could decide what they cared about? Why can't that option be the media type if it is available?

It seems good to tell people that if the media type is text/html writing <title/> is wrong and <title></title> is ok. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
