Bug Description
As suggested by Andrew Bennetts: "I wonder if ... every time a page test generates a page with a Content-Type of HTML or XHTML, it also validates it. It could initially emit a warning for invalid HTML, and later (once we've fixed all our pages) we could make it raise an exception and thus fail tests for us. This way good page testing will also ensure good HTML validity testing."
See also bug 487, for doing validation on production.

This should probably not be the default behaviour. No points in making our test suite slower than it already is.
