Sigh. Semantics. That was one suggested DOCTYPE that I found -- and
no, I'm not sure at this point where -- but regardless, do you know
the answer to the *original question*:

When will the W3C validator support ARIA?

As I said "Now".

Or, if you believe it already does, what is the appropriate DOCTYPE
to use?


Umm. What does the spec say?

http://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria/ says:

      <?xml version="1.0"?>
      <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML+ARIA 1.0//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/MarkUp/DTD/xhtml-aria-1.dtd ">
      <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";
            xml:lang="en">
      ...
      </html>

This is fine, but is XHML served as XML, so it wont work in IE, thus the real world (unfortunately)
