I looked into these, and frankly, I'm reluctant to add them to the spec. I
haven't seen a huge number of sites that depend on these, and the other

Unless someone has a good reason to do otherwise, I say we skip this.

That makes sense, but, then I'd like doctypes to be closed at the first > even if it's in a FPI or SI, to match Opera, Safari and Firefox, and to allow implementations to do doctype analysis in the parser stage instead of in the tokenizer stage should they so wish, or skip doctype analysis altogether if it is of no interest to them...

i.e., I'd like the > character in these states:

   DOCTYPE public identifier (double-quoted) state
   DOCTYPE public identifier (single-quoted) state
   DOCTYPE system identifier (double-quoted) state
   DOCTYPE system identifier (single-quoted) state

...to be a parse error, mark the doctype as incorrect, emit the token, and switch to the data state.
