I'd do that as well. I think it's fine to do whatever works. Just pointing out that when you're thinking about XHTML and the future you might as well go HTML instead.
XHMTL even with text/html mime type poses problems with user generated input that I haven't seen solved in a really elegant way. Someone is just bound to not close and img tag somehow.
As soon as application/xhtml+xml comes into play the problems are just ridiculous. Try using google ads for example, or anything that uses document.write ... NOPE
HTML 5 is fairly failure tolerant, and you can just use the new elements as it stands. Worst case scenario is that browsers interpret it as tag soup. Same like with XHTML.
Features like canvas already works in a lot of browsers.
So yeah, just trying to be helpful, not saying you don't know what you're on about ...
