    <thetext>Proposal: Add this public identifier to the list of public identifiers for which Web browsers with XHTML support are expected to support named entities:

   &quot;-//W3C//ENTITIES HTML MathML Set//EN//XML&quot;

There is already an extension spec (WD) that do add this public identifier: http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-pubid/.

The purpose of the extension spec is to get Web browsers (Web browsers with XHTML support) to implement it (on the XML tool chain side of it, there should already support). So motivation for asking that it gets listed in HTML 5.1 Nightly is so that XHTML Web browser vendors will pick it up - I am not sure they pay attention to extension WDs. 

Motivation for why this identifier should be supported, is described in the WD.</thetext>

    <thetext>(In reply to Leif Halvard Silli from comment #0)
&gt; There is already an extension spec (WD) that do add this public identifier:
&gt; http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml-pubid/.

That extension spec has been moved to Note and includes this disclaimer:
&quot;Beware. This specification is no longer in active maintenance and the HTML Working Group does not intend to maintain it further.&quot;

So we don&apos;t seem to have support for moving forward on this.</thetext>
