The only reason I can think of is, it would be really nice to be able to
pass your XHTML pages to an XML parser so you can alter the page via the DOM
- you know on the server, during development.
It would certainly make some site maintenance issues easier, and I'd be
interested in seeing a CMS that did this.
(and no, I'm not coding to XHTML)
