Comment (by Nazgul):

 Replying to [comment:6 Otto42]:
 > Double quotes are required in XHTML Strict, while Transitional allows
 either single or double quotes.
 Could you point me to a place where that's specified?

 I've searched the specs, but as far as I can tell XML (and XHTML) allow
 both ' and " to encapsulate attribute values. Also, my personal blog is
 XHTML 1.0 Strict according to the W3 validator and it uses ' for some
 attribute encapsulation.

 Personally I favor readable PHP sourcecode over consistent HTML. Both are
 machine-readable formats which aren't meant to really be read by humans
 anyway, but it's the PHP code I have to read and edit as a developer.

 I'd opt for a wontfix.
