Easier to read or easier to implement the display component? So what if the displaying component is easier to implement if you make it harder for user to create a sitemap without it.Suppose you have an IDE for Cocoon where you need to read the sitemap and show the user it in a GUI. This is my point. The XML version will be easier.
If we were creating a commercial product with GUIs all over the place I would agree: it is better to create easily parsable format and provide a gui for it. But not in this case. We do not have a GUI and won't have for a long time.
One of my project contains about 35 entities right now. After it started growing I resigned from mapping my entities manually in XML and started to use XML. I have no nightmares anymore :)
As many of you know, I also work in Druid project and there we have a XML internal representation of a DB. This is easier to manage and create than a other format.
