Is it worth all this effort? Well, second from using HTML all the way, I'd probably agree with this approach, as it would at least award users of more mordern standards-complaint browsers. Honestly, I don't really care much about IE as long as they can see the page. My main concern in starting this is that there is absolutely no benefit at all when it's served as text/html to browsers that can support it.
If we're really that stuck on using XHTML, I wouldn't mind sending XHTML as text/html just for IE and letting better browsers (see http://www.w3.org/People/mimasa/test/xhtml/media-types/results) take advantage of better/faster rendering, etc. by using application/xhtml+xml. Although this would be a bit more complicated than the all-HTML option, it's just a simple rewrite rule in Apache, so hopefully, Zope can handle it easily too.
