Another major difference is that XHTML eliminates deprecated
elements. I think we should avoid deprecated elements as much as
possible (i.e., without sacrificing important functionality under
current browsers), even if we have to go with XHTML 1.0 Transitional
(see my recent follow-up to Chris Johnson).

It merely says it "SHOULD NOT" be served as text/html. It seems to me
that we'd have good reasons (lack of XML support by commonly-used
browsers), in the spirit of RFC 2119, to do it anyway. But this point
is moot now, see above...
