Here's a very general use of the background property in CSS

It matters a lot IMO.
Let's take an example, IE renders a page in "quirks mode" (meaning it tries to fix things on it's own; "tries" being the keyword) if you don't have a Doctype, for example but this is the wrong way to go about doing things, so let's assume that the IE team decide to do the right thing and display the page as it is without a doctype, now your page will have a problem.
There are so many other scenario's I can think of, the key scenario being that if something is MEANT to be a certain way, then that's for a reason so we should code according to standards otherwise we end up in a messed up standards-non-compliant world and inefficiency kicks in and it becomes hard to share and exchange data blah blah blah (I can go on if you like heh heh)

I believe that if a page is not valid, the parser (in this case the browser) should'nt display the page (just like the XML renderers that display an error if an XML document is not valid XML)...but that's just me.
