Comment (by dmsnell):

 I wonder if there's a way we could start to separate the concepts here. It
 seems like themes aren't exactly using it to check for HTML5 support or
 acknowledge it. It's more like a theme adopting for WordPress' legacy or
 less-legacy comment form.

 To that end, maybe we just ignore the name and gradually remove pre-HTML5
 (pre-2008) HTML code generation and ignore the flag.
