Comment (by sephr):

 This change breaks XHTML support in many areas. In many places throughout
 the documentation, WordPress claims to have XHTML support (and actually
 did support XHTML before this change). CDATA sections are not redundant
 for people emitting strict XHTML5 served as application/xhtml+xml, like
 myself.

 I've been emitting XHTML5 ever since 2009, so I depend on the continued
 support of valid syntax.
