I don't like the idea of multiplying the number of options we have without adding new functionality, and I don't think a :self_closing option would be particularly useful. I don't think there's anything wrong with bundling all the syntactic changes between HTML and XHTML in one option. If I were redesigning the formatting options from scratch, I think I'd just have :html and :xhtml formats, and have the doctype (the only difference between :html4 and :html5) be set explicitly. I may migrate to something like that in the future.
