Bug 10383 - DOCTYPE token: The text here seems to require lower-case "html" as the node type; i.e. "<!DOCTYPE HTML>" would be invalid. This contradicts Section 10.1.1, which says both are valid (and in fact gives the latter for all its examples).

DOCTYPE token: The text here seems to require lower-case "html" as the node
type; i.e. "<!DOCTYPE HTML>" would be invalid.	This contradicts Section
10.1.1, which says both are valid (and in fact gives the latter for all its
examples).

It doesn't. The name has been lowercased in <http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/tokenization.html#doctype-name-state>.
