W3C Tests 8.1.10.{a,b,c} failures, but marked 'Passed' in manual results

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The following tests fail on FF3, in Selenium and manual inspection:

8.1.10.a
8.1.10.b
8.1.10.c

The value for each option in the xf:select seems to be added (or removed) 
4 times in FF3.

The following tests fail on IE7, in Selenium but pass on manual inspection:

8.1.10.a
8.1.10.b

The Selenium failures seem to relate to an extra space character 
discrepancy between the driver page expectation and the actual control 
value.

Visually, xf:select does not meet the LnF criteria. It appears much better 
in IE7 (for examples, the checkboxes for the select items are seen on IE7, 
but not on FF3 -- which makes the UI confusing on FF3, its not possible to 
say whether an option has been selected by looking at the xf:select).

As MarkB reminds on IRC, this issue relates to behavior in XHTML mode, 
which is how we have the W3C test suite checked into SVN. This may not be 
an issue in HTML mode (vague since I'm adding this comment as a bulk edit 
across multiple issues). The manual results files actually reflect HTML 
mode behavior.

Verified that the LnF issue with xf:select mentioned above is pronounced in 
XHTML 
mode only. For example, the checkboxes do appear as desired in HTML mode (in 
FF3 as 
well as IE7). Adding Mode-XHTMLonly label.

Values being added 4 times in XHTML mode has already been reported in issue 
441, so 
blocking on that.
