For the site in question yes.
It'll be an intranet site where only a tested version of Firefox is
allowed for web browsing and they demanded the latest stable versions
of all standards to be used.

And for other sites where xhtml 1.1 is wanted, I'm planning to use a
middleware that'll dynamically change the header depending on the
browser.
And for why we won't use that on this site is that its another trap
for users to see if they didn't tamper with the computers they worked
on and installed an app that isn't allowed by company policy.
Most of the previous work I did for this company is design ADS
policy's and scripts to make sure people don't change anything on
these workstations, if they call up to say their "browser" gives a
download prompt instead of giving the intranet site, the helpdesk
techies only need to go over there and slap them over the head instead
of wondering why some users are complaining that some parts of the
site doesn't work.

The idea there is that once they log off a computer, it needs to be as
if no one ever worked on it since its completely Gigabit connected in
there, installing apps at login is about as transparent as loading a
roaming profile.
All their personal stuff is loaded at login, including apps they
specifically might need, apps that can run of the network (office for
example) are mounted at login.

For me personally the idea has always been to stay on the stable edge
of the standards. I've always done this with php in the past and I'll
do the same in the future with Django.
