           Summary: HTML 4.01 Transitional/Frameset with empty system ID
                    should cause almost standards mode
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 525+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.5
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: New Bugs
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: geoffers+webkit at gmail.com

Per discussion with dhyatt and Hixie in #webkit, we should be entering almost
standards mode with an HTML 4.01 Transitional/Frameset public ID with an empty
(but present (i.e., "")) system ID.

That is to say both of these should be almost standards, and not quirks (as
they are now):

<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.01 transitional//en" "">
<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN" "">
