Location in reviewed document:
3. Character Encoding [http://www.w3.org/TR/2010/WD-html-polyglot-20100624/#character-encoding]

Comment: 
&quot;When polyglot markup uses UTF-16, it should include the BOM indicating UTF-16LE or UTF-16BE.&quot;

 
The RFC use of the word &apos;should&apos; is incorrect. The XML spec requires the BOM for UTF-16 documents. http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#charencoding</thetext>
