New description:

 Results of running the W3C online validator on the root directory of the
 testgrid:

 http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ftestgrid.allmydata.org%3A3567%2Furi%2FURI%253ADIR2%253Adjrdkfawoqihigoett4g6auz6a%253Ajx5mplfpwexnoqff7y5e4zjus4lidm76dcuarpct7cckorh2dpgq%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline&group=1
 &user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.654

 If I override the doctype to be "XHTML 1.0 Transitional", it fares much
 better:

 http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ftestgrid.allmydata.org%3A3567%2Furi%2FURI%253ADIR2%253Adjrdkfawoqihigoett4g6auz6a%253Ajx5mplfpwexnoqff7y5e4zjus4lidm76dcuarpct7cckorh2dpgq%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=XHTML+1.0+Transitional&group=1
 &user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.654

 So every XHTML document should start with

 {{{
 <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
 "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
 <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
 }}}

 There is also a minor error on the Welcome page:

 http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Ftestgrid.allmydata.org%3A3567%2F&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=XHTML+1.0+Transitional&group=1
 &user-agent=W3C_Validator%2F1.654

 where I think the validator is wanting {{{id="mutable"}}} instead of, or
 in addition to {{{name="mutable"}}}.
