Hi Jim There are two questions here:
1) Can TW5 generate valid XHTML representations of tiddlers? The answer is yes, we just need to generate appropriate templates 2) Should TW5 move to a default file format that is valid XHTML? I'm certainly open to updating the file format (the current TW5 file format is compatible with TW Classic). As discussed on the last hangout, I favour packing the raw tiddlers into a blob of JSON in a script tag with a custom type (independently, we can also generate static HTML representations for search engines; try viewing tiddlywiki.com with JavaScript turned off).
