This is probably a bug in the DTD. If my memory serves me well, the 
corresponding W3C XML Schema accepts the @target attribute.

In our opinion, our support of XHTML 1.1

* is useful,
* is based on the standard W3C modules,
* follows the general philosophy of  XHTML 1.1,
* does not introduce interchange problems with the major Web browsers or 
the major EPUB readers.

For us, this is sufficient to release our support of XHTML 1.1 and to 
claim that we support XHTML 1.1.

The above DOCTYPE is not ``sniffed'' by Web browsers. The whole idea 
behind  our support of <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd";> is to allow creating 
HTML pages with XMLmind XML Editor which trigger a predictable behavior 
in the major Web browsers.
