[wp-hackers] WP 2.5 gallery breaking xhtml 1.0

I would suggest that the gallery be modified to remove the style
altogether. Why are we including styling elements in the core code
itself? Isn't that up to the theme to decide how a thing looks?

When a theme has to add filters just to get full control over the
style, something is wrong.
