Changelog:
This Sigil-0.9.5 release is a quick follow-up bug fix release to primarily address some regressions that had snuck into the code over the past two releases.
Bug Fixes
* Fix regression when ImportHTML in gathering HTML based DC. metadata
* Fix regression - remove incorrect use of opf:scheme from dc:creator and dc:contributor under epub2
* Fix regression - the guide reference tag is always a void tag
* Fix issues with hunspell spell checking under Windows when non-ascii paths to dictionaries
* Fix issues with overridding the prefs directory on Windows with non-ascii paths
* Fix broken manual "Check" button on W3C stylesheet validation's generated html form.
* Fix media-type recognition for .m4a and .m4v file extenstions in main Sigil and plugin code
* Treat ruby and rt as inline tags when pretty-printing in Sigils and for plugins
Even our one new feature fixes a bug in which CSS version is sued to validate CSS under epub3.
New Feature
* Allow user to choose what level of CSS gets used in the "Validate Stylesheets
With W3C" tool via user preference (General).
Be aware that Sigil-0.9.5 still enforces the need for epub3 to have and support an NCX so that it generates as backward a compatible epub as possible. This may be relaxed in future releases.
Sigil-0.9.5 like its predecessors passed all of the following tests for epub3 support: iframe, img, audio, video , mathml, svg (except for svg support in the spine), javascript, and of course recognizing and allowing html5 specific tags like section, and etc. Sigil-0.9.5 also supports javascript based local-storage and display of embedded pdfs.

With only one day after the 0.8.3 release 0.8.4 is being released.
My deepest apologies because this means there is a bad bug. Admittedly
it will only impact a very small amount of users but it was big
enough to warrant a new release.
Unfortunately during refactoring of "remove all plugins" code the
actual remove code was moved to the wrong place. With 0.8.3 if you
say no it will still remove all plugins. This has been corrected
and is the only change in 0.8.4.

Dialog since the dialog has no real info and openes the
validation pane with the results anyway.
