Hi,

I believe that a useful feature for composer would be being able to choose
the doctype a page uses. I imagine it working as a dialog box with options
for format, version, strict/quirks - with descriptions to guide the user to
choosing the right format for them. After choosing (and maybe entering a
page title) a new composer window would open with the minimal valid document
for that format (and version).

This would help increase the number of well formed and validating pages on
the net.

I understand that composer will only produce valid markup (as it works by
DOM calls), so if there is a mechanism that checks user entered markup for
well-formedness (or preferably validity) the quality of webpage markup would
be increased (once moz gets widespread :)

I have thought out a way of doing this, but am not really a programmer. I
will type up my ideas and post them, and have a look at XPFE when I get a
chance, but comments would be apprieciated.

Cheers,

David Balch.
