Comment:

 This issue probably shouldn't be titled "HTML5 Validation" because it
 relates to ALL validation.

 Neither category or attachment are valid microformats, no matter whether
 you use HTML or XHTML. They never have been. Where WordPress outputs
 rel="category" it should be rel="tag". While there is currently no
 microformat for attachments there is case to be made for changing this to
 rel="enclosure".

 rel="enclosure" is still just a draft but its already in use and likely to
 be approved. It's already recognised in the Atom Syndication Format
 ([http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4287.txt]).
