I've just created a ticket (http://dev.fckeditor.net/ticket/4246), but also wanted to discuss support of XHTML Strict / HTML5 here and see whether I am alone who cares about support of the modern standards. The latest build of FCK 3.0 still generates some legacy attributes and tags (like <strict>, <u>, etc) that has been deprecated in XHTML Strict for many years already, they also do not exists in future HTML5.
Maybe the new version of the editor would be the great time to switch to the modern standards?

Re: FCK 3.0 and XHTML Strict / HTML5
I've had to work around HTML5 elements by protecting the code between </[0,1](section|article|header|etc).*?>, which means that these HTML5 elements become invisible to the actual WYSIWYG editor (you only see them in the code meaning you can't see their styles in the WYSIWYG).
Now, months later, I still haven't seen an update to support even the mere existence of these elements in CKEditor. By mere existance, I mean <article>Hi Mom</article> not becoming, say, <article></article><p>Hi Mom</p>, which is the typical type of problem I see when using CKEditor.
