I agree that it's too early. HTML5 is still a working draft, not a
specification. Although it seems to reach its final specification, it is
still work in progress. Who knows what will happen between now and the
official specification.

For instance, the whole HTML vs XHTML part has a "Controversial Working
Draft" status, which means anything can happen.
