Comment(by hakre):

 That would not be for feeds only but for proerply parsed "XHTML as in XML"
 pages as well, right?

 ----

 What I strongly dislike with this patch is that it is using ob_ output
 functions. The usage of those has not been clearly defined until today.
 That can really mess things up and this patch might not work as intended.

 the ob-length need to be measured before and after the include. the delta
 between the two values should be 0, not the overall length. that should
 make it more robust.

 I would love to see a comment on this one prior to open (another) new
 ticket.
