I am very aware of that - but we have a situation were even if the XML
is "valid" - it can still be non-conforming to the XODE standard.

For example you suggested using a format which cannot be validated by a
schema either (when talking about the CDATA for comma delimited arrays).

There are a few typos due to copying and pasting - thanks for picking
that one up.  As you said it makes little difference.
