XML is used as a database, elements can be easily added, modified, removed. xor tends to be overkilled as of map tile usage -- we don't need iterating, delete, and that much meta information. With my suggested design, we can even add newly downloaded tiles: insert record into meta database, and append tile content into "heap" file.
