Description
Since the administration panel and twentytwelve have doctype HTML5, there's no need for the readme.html document in the root to remain with the doctype XHTML.

Alright, it's been attached. I assume you can add HTML5-specific elements. That would, however, require a shim for IE8.

We still stick to the XHTML flavor of HTML5. So, we should continue to close self-closing elements. And no, we do not yet rely on HTML5-specific elements, as we don't really have a need for them (and still support down to IE7 in the admin).

Agreed.
