I haven't heard of XHTML for years. And what I heard then, the W3C disencouraged the use of it in favor of HTML5. Also, how would one benefit from on-the-fly validation? Isn't it just static documents like plain HTML? I think it is better to validate once, when done. More mindful, and besides - don't you have to really stink to do errors all the time *with HTML*?! As always, just because it is possible, question remains, is it also a good idea? For HTML, I use validate(1), the "Offline HTMLHelp.com Validator", which is in the Debian repos pack wdg-html-validator.
