Re: setting a doctype.

Right now I can't guarantee that the XML that is generated will 
actually validate as XHTML,  it's likely to have extra stuff in it. 
It's probably a minor deal to make the generated XML validate, but I'm 
very hesitant to have a DTD associated with any document that is 
processed by the Syncato core[1]. It's probably OK to have a doctype 
without the actual DTD reference as long as libxml doesn't complain 
about it. I don't ever use DTDs so I have no idea how it behaves. The 
namespace is OK too once I'm comfortable with calling what Syncato is 
generating XHTML, however just slapping it on will break content 
queries. That can be fixed by setting up a namespace context with the 
namespace pre-bound to the default namespace.

[1] The core will have to process the generated XHTML to do content 
queries.
