I wonder if it's expected to work like the ideal (*) web browser:  They
don't fetch the DTDs, they have internal copies of the standard known
DTDs, and only fetch the ones that they need to.

In reality, web browsers pay scant regard to specs, but the behaviour I
outlined is a textbook DTD handling methodology.  After all, you
wouldn't want to go fetching the DTD each time you read standard HTML,
it's rather wasteful, seeing as the DTDs don't change.
