If you were to configure your server to properly serve as application/xhtml+xml, then IE users would not be able to view the page.
I am not particularly inclined to migrate to html to fix something that I did not break (it's IE's fault). But I suppose I will have to consider the pros and cons.
On some of my sites I serve XHTML as application/xhtml+xml to all browsers except IE (and browsers that say they can't handle it, like IE *should* say) and as text/html to IE. This is with XHTML 1.0 however. You're not supposed to do that with XHTML 1.1, but it is permitted with XHTML 1.0. I wrote up a howto last year explaining how to configure Apache to do this. It's pretty simple. Maybe it'll be of use to you if you decide to stick with XHTML: http://protempore.net/~calvins/howto/xhtml-apache/ calvin
