I'm interested in responses to this aspect:

There are currently a lot of validation errors with the template; both css
and xhtml.

My personal rule of thumb is to get as close to validation as possible -
shooting for perfect. Now and then I question the "strictness" of my train
of thought.

However, if one is creating a template - I am thinking one should shoot for
validated code.

Any thoughts pro or con for the above?

My personal opinion : it is not appropriate to post as example
code that does not validate, unless a clear "invalid code"
disclaimer [1] accompanies the example, for one simple reason :

"HTML" that does not validate is not HTML;
"CSS" that does not validate is not CSS.

necessary to use invalid code in order to solve the problem
that he or she was setting out to address.
