This isn't a problem the .html extensions are actually parsed and handled by handlebars and you shouldn't think of them as HTML. Take a look into the help docs and look up handlebars.js too.

Yeah, I finally parsed that out of the docs, they could definitely be clearer on that point, though even the script file that's throwing the error states on the first line that // XXX should allow <!-- --> comments at toplevel, so clearly the developers themselves recognize that there's at least some issue there. However, accepting that that's (mostly) working as intended, I'm not really sure that being limited to using only <head>, <body> and <template> tags as the top levels isn't a bigger issue, but possibly that's a different discussion.

I think it will change with time, personally I would have preferred it if handlebars required its own extension like .hb or something then people would do a context switch like you would with .coffeescript.
I think that might actually be regarding just HTML comments to be fair as doctypes don't have a trailing -->
For me also I think it would make sense to be able to change the template that is in the lib/ directory as like you say changing doctype and other things is important.

+1 we need better error handling on HTML parse errors.
The .html files aren't HTML documents, though. They hold HTML-style templates (like handlebars), plus magic <head> and <body> sections that get concatenated into the final HTML head and body.

Can we not call them .html.handlebars or .html.hb like .html.erb in rails?

It would be nice to allow the doctype declarations at the top of the file - my code editor will read the doctype and properly syntax and error highlight for different HTML versions based on doctype. (e.g. accepting or flagging as errors form input types based on HTML version.) So even if the parser just regex and removed the doctype (ignoring it) that would help with my workflow.

Is this issue still present? Are non-HTML5 doctypes still going to be relevant by the time Meteor hits 1.0?

Yup, we recently introduced an explicit error message if you try to put a doctype declaration in a template .html file.

can i setup meteor to run with doctype for html4? This is crucial as we plan to go to production with meteor within 3 weeks.

@isamuelson You can hack around this by changing the following file: app/lib/app.html.in
