I know a guy from another forum and his obsession with W3C is almost like yours...
Nowadays many webmasters use one script or another to power their sites. Even though you can create 100% valid layout, you have no control over how script or some plugin will parse the content.
Also there are thousands of little code snippets can be found on the web that can be useful on your site but not validate to certain Doctype.
So... Do I code to standards? - yes.
Would I kill myself if some little glitch in the script cause my site not to validate - no...
In the end if all my pages can be crawled and indexed - that's all that matters...
