That would be great. Note however the discussions in Bug 785 (please follow-up THERE, not here) and note that others have tried providing a patch, without success. There is AFAICT no way to provide a complete Accept: for the validator. Nor (IMHO) is there a need to provide any. I am yet to hear a proper justification for the need for an Accept: header, beyond "it does not play well with how I serve XHTML 1.1 as text/html", which is now a non-issue.
