AFAIK they mandate that XHTML be served as application/xml+xhtml
instead of text/html, which the XHTML standard itself says
to use for compatibility reasons (they also try to weasel
in the application/xml+xhtml content type, but realise it
won’t work). Nice when standards contradict each other
like that.



XHTML is dead, exactly because of mistakes like the content type fiasco and 
the inability to handle malformed XML documents. XHTML 2 was even completely 
abandoned because of that.
