I'm not sure if it has been discussed earlier, but after seeing Chris

it's pretty obvious that Internet Explorer needs a new switch of some
sort, to be allowed to implement and fix the DOM, JavaScript, CSS1-3 etc.
without breaking backward compatibility. At least that's what Chris
Wilson
says.
And I agree. Internet Explorer needs a new switch. So I thought, what
about using:
<!DOCTYPE html>
as the new switch?
This is a plain simple yet brilliant idea.
Other browsers can also use <!DOCTYPE html> as an indication to stop
applying certain hacks which make them diverge from standards in favor of
interoperability with IE.
