New users don't know about attachments and stuff either. They just have to mouse over the abbreviation

wtf... if you're gonna type the full word anyway, you might as well not use the abbreviation. 
That's true.. but writing out full "I want to learn the eXtensible HyperText Markup Language" is stupid.. and by using the abbreviation, you immediately explain to people who don't know what XHTML is what it means. You could ofcourse also say: I have a question about XHTML: How do I use Doctypes? (for XHTML newbies: XHTML is the eXtensible HyperText Markup Language)
It's a W3C compliant tag.. doesn't it work in IE?
