Hmmm, how can one tie this together, so that 
 (setq dired-guess-shell-alist-user
       (list 
        (list "\\.html?$" "validate --emacs")))
will also turn on compilation-minor-mode in the *Shell Command Output*
buffer, but for that command's output only...

Or maybe one can make a phony function in dired-guess-shell-alist-user
that doesn't return a shell command, [or maybe just returns ":" or
other shell no-op's], and really calls M-x compile?
