The problem is, if IE (which is, lets say, the target app) opens it 
using text/xml or application/xhtml+xml, it wont render it 
properly. On 

Not exactly, the problem is that IE doesn't know what is xhtml, because
of that it deals with it as if it was html. The same happen when you
open a xml file that, for some reason, doesn't have the mime type of
text/xml

If you want to see xhtml as xml just save the following to a reg file
and run it

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xhtml]
@="xmlfile"
"Content Type"="text/xml"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xhtml\ShellEx]

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.xhtml\ShellEx\{BB2E617C-0920-11d1-9A0B-00C04FC2D6C1}
]
@="{EAB841A0-9550-11cf-8C16-00805F1408F3}"

the other hand, if it opens it using text/html, it will 
render properly 
but the internal representation (which is important to any further 
processing whether it's an API like DOM or an operation like 
file>save 
as) will be broken...

IE's current code base, or rather, components (MSXML and 
MSHTML) cannot 
work together so you can't have proper handling of XHTML using IE.
