The various admin overlay framesets still generate html4 headers. Possibly all the admin headers are html4.

I guess this makes sense because the admin overlays are run under the 'admin' theme, typically 'seven'. Does it make sense to worry about this now? Should/is boron ok as an admin theme?

Yeah, unfortunately, the overlay and admin bar are outside of our control (separate theme and module).

Luckily, the code that renders them only shows up if you're logged in, so anonymous visitors will see straight HTML5.

Have you thought about adding a maintenance-page.tpl.php so that boron could be used as an admin theme? That would give you html5 in the admin overlay.
