I'm pretty sure we're not activating quirks mode in other browsers (and 
if we are it's a bug) - we're claiming to be XHTML transitional, and 
(should) validate against that.  That doesn't preclude serving as 
text/html AFAIK.  Philippe did point out some minor issues that can and 
should be fixed, but I'm not going to break support for IE at the 
framework level.  As for IE7, it's cool, but it looks like something 
that will mostly be useful for people that are doing specific things at 
the application level that wouldn't work in IE, not something I want 
every Seaside app to have to depend on.
