I suspect the theoretical case Shane mentioned is this: One XHTML document, its a bit rubbish since it has no title (just <title/>). Validator comes along, gets the XHTML as application/xhtml+xml. All valid, and HTML compatibility not a consideration (since it isn't text/html). Along comes Internet Explorer and the same document is served up as text/html because the admin has detected to use User Agent sniffing.
