Yep. bus as it is "Standard" some need to ....
Thus IMHO the way to go is to have the basic XML component work on
linked lists with binary data in memory and only when loading/saving use
an ASCII representation.
(in fact, we did a "linked component list" handler / converter for HTML
some years ago, same of course could be modified to use XML, as same is
even more strictly defined than HTML. The unit is based in
TComponentList and defines several components for the different tag
types used).
