Well, we don't care specifically about IE9. But we should care about ereaders that want to be HTML/CSS compliant, and they might look at doctype to decide how to render the content.

The point is, as far as I can see calibre DELETES the doctype of the source. The easiest resolution (and most general) would be to retain the doctype.
