RE: XHTML adoption curve
I
think big companies like IBM and etrade would be motiviated to use a feature
like this so one knows "a page is from IBM" or "a page is from etrade" without
having to got through the expensive and uncacheable SSL method. They in
turn would need to influence browser vendors.

Doug,
What makes you think that your suggestion
would improve acceptance of XHTML?
What is your analysis of the
barriers/discouragements operate for a "typical" HTML developer even
contemplating adopting XHTML? How does your suggestion help the vast majority
of HTML developers who exist in a world outside XML geekdom?
I spend
most of my time with XML but, to be frank, fail to see the "carrot" in your
suggestion for a typical HTML developer.
