XHTML isn't really just XML, it's a utiliziation of XML for HTML documents.
There's nothing in the XML spec that says a user agent should render tags in
the XHTML namespace. I've never seen a 'how to render an XML document in a
web browser' spec. But I'd say, since it's just text, maybe it oughta just
be displayed as such. That way the browser will still be useful for viewing
XML. If you want to show an image in a document in a browser why not just
use XHTML?
