6515,"Gallery shortcode produces invalid XHTML, in all cases",asiah,anonymous,"Note: I use Firefox 2.0.0.13 and the Web Developer Plugin's validation tools.

I made note of this at the WP-Testers mailing list, but as of a few minutes ago, no one has responded to my comment. The silence has revealed to me two things.

The Dashboard no longer validates according to XHTML standards. It's petty, but it might solve some of the other issues that have cropped up by correcting it.

Inserting individual images into a post is flawless, posing no threat to validation, whereas inserting a gallery reveals issues with missing alt attributes, unclosed br tags, and misplaced style elements (<style type='text/css'>...).

I hope this issue can be addressed soon as I've been awaiting the arrival of the Gallery feature for quite some time. If not, how can I fix this at a local level, perhaps in some WP system file? Thanks so much for your assistance.
