Of course.  I don't know where you got the impression that someone/thing wanted
to do that.  It would be nice if xhtml1-dtds would register the DTDs to the SGML
catalogs in addition to XML catalogs though (for example for use in SGML
validation tools and things that grok SGML but not XML catalogs), but that's a
bit offtopic for this submission.

Of course, the html401-dtds package deals with SGML catalogs only.

I don't claim to be an SGML nor XML god, but do have more than a little
experience with both.
