Hi, all,

And now something which has nothing to do with JSON...

i noticed yesterday (via a comment in one of the tickets) that fossil now
sends an HTML5 doctype. That's all fine and good, but the wiki does not
actually play well as-is with HTML5. In v5 several features wiki authors
rely on are deprecated, e.g. the TT tag, align options, and several other
things are now (=v5) officially delegated to CSS. Fossil strips out all but
a small subset of element properties (CSS styles get removed).

We may need to enable at least CSS (but keep the other stripping) in order
to be v5 compliant. We'd also need to change code-side uses of TT and such,
replacing them with styled SPANs.

(Granted, i don't honestly believe that any existing browsers will remove
the TT tag or the A.TARGET attribute, but they are officially deprecated.)
