Comment (by sabreuse):

 You're incorrect on that point -- Cutts has been saying since at least
 2009 that multiple H1s are fine when they make semantic sense, such as for
 distinct articles or sections on a page (ref:
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GIn5qJKU8VM). What you shouldn't do (and we
 don't) is use them all over the place just for visual impact or with the
 intention of making article content look more "important". This is an old
 SEO myth that refuses to die, and we shouldn't be building WordPress to
 appease a myth.

 As for validity, it's perfectly valid HTML5.
