There is one marked difference: processing instructions and
markup declarations are part of SGML and XML (and thus
HTML/XHTML). These other syntaxes you list here are all
prioprietary, and they are all invalid in X?HTML.

I don’t care what decision is taken about the vendor-invented
syntaxes, but the standard syntax elements should definitely be
supported.
