            Bug ID: 85231
           Summary: Drop HTML 4.0 export
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

I've experienced this when I've exported LO's LICENSE document to HTML (from
read-only mode). The encoding was:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">

It's very old technology and export to something like this isn't a right way. I
think we should switch to HTML5 and add ability to select XHTML optionally.

The current problem is that there's no clear way to save/export document to
HTML.
We have:
* save dialog - olde HTML4 Transitional as one and only option to save docs in
HTML
* export dialog - XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0 in exporting

What is the difference between them? LO can edit HTML5 docs with no problems.

My proposal:
* make HTML5 save format instead of HTML4 Transitional
* stop offer to save in HTML4 Transitional
* remove HTML entry from export dialog, HTML could be edited in LO Writer,
unlike PDF
* make two entries (split current option) in save dialog: HTML5 (.html) and
XHTML (.html)
