This bug causes validate from wdg-html-validator to be useless (for me), since it has to fetch the XHTML DTD over the network for every attempt at validation.

It has been this way for over a year.

It also results in w3c blocking scripts that use validate:

Please note that there is no other offline XHTML validator in Ubuntu or Debian

Can we please bump the Importance up?
