The last mention of HTML 5 in the CHANGES file is:
HTML5_CHARSETS whose default value was not marked properly -TD
(That's from 2012-02-12 (2.8.8dev.10)).
…but HTML 5 is a major revamp of HTML. It throws in a new parsing algorithm, a
pile of new elements, and a bucket of JavaScript APIs. Large portions of it are
not the sort of things that could be handled by a plugin.
It isn't sensible to treat it as a monolithic thing to be implemented as a
single unit (nobody else is doing that) and any questions about browser support
for HTML 5 are better addressed at the individual feature level.
