The only way to not break 50% of the web is to invent a new mode that gives the IE developers a blank sheet they can begin to draw on.

FWIW, I think the 50% figure is incorrect. According to [1], 90% of the web use quirks mode.

Although it's great to get the right numbers on the table, it isn't really relevant for this discussion. If the IE team feels an obligation to maintain backwards compatibility with CSS1Compat and thus has a need to introduce another rendering switch, then that's what matters. The discussion is then how this should be enabled, and my proposal is with <!DOCTYPE html>.
