My uneducated guess is UAs will inevitably continue to doctype sniff no matter what WCAG do, if only because they have existing code that does this and the web has tonnes of CSS that relies on it. But if we want to avoid defining new behaviour for </img> and </image> parsing, how about replacing it with <pict>, <picture>, <graphic>, or <im>? Or, how about getting more specific? <bitmap> [e.g. image/gif of an icon] <diagram> [e.g. image/svg of a map] <photo> [e.g. image/jpeg of a cat] Would that help search engines, I wonder? -- Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis
