Presentational details had been "retired" (as you put it) already with
HTML/4 Strict. XHTML/1.0 Strict is only a re-working of HTML/4.01

The fact that you're asking this question at all suggests that you
haven't quite grasped the point of "Strict" yet. (Quite apart from
having missed the last 1042 times this question was asked - and given
a similar dusty answer).

Even *with* JS, it isn't going to make any difference in quite a range
of browsing situations. Why do you suppose, as author, you have any
right to impose new windows on readers?
