Personally I'd quite like responseXML to return a Document if the content is text/html, since it can just as easily be parsed into a DOM as XML can.

This, unfortunately, strays from the stated goal of specifying "what works". I guess we should discuss at some point if we want to keep that goal or not.

I'd propose that handling HTML should be an XHR 2.0 feature.
