No thanks.

XHTML Basic? XHTML 1.1? There was a reason for that previous massive
row over "three namespaces for html" to allow multiple schema for the
html namespace.

XHTML currently goes to some lengths to specify via a DTD DOCTYPE
declaration exactly which flavour of XHTML is being used (likely to be
even more important with xhtml modularisation) are you really saying
you think they should throw all that out and just have some generic
catch all `html' schema?
