So you want to use the HTML5 doctype with XHTML syntax? That's not required
in the specification, but I'll consider adding support for it. I may add it
as "!!! 5" with the normal :xhtml format, rather than a new :xhtml5 format,
though.

As for the XML header, I'm still not sure why that isn't working. What
framework are you using? Are you sure you aren't rendering the Haml with
:format set to :html5?
