on unix you can. But I prefer your suggesting of providing
setMarkupFileDefaultEncoding (or however we name it).

ok, that is the example where the example markup is not HTML
compliant. But it does not mean that Wicket is not able to
create/handle (X)HTML compliant markup. You are right that wicket does
not test for HTML or XHTML compliance. Does any of the other
frameworks do it? A 1.1 DTD or schema will eventually solve that
problem. Until than, most  html editors (e.g. dreamweaver) do allow to
ignore "unknown" namespaces like "wicket".
