I've done something similar as well. In one system I work on, a single
XML DTD is used to structure data that is rendered (at various points)
as Jess code, SQL, and GUI screens. It's a nice way to organize a
system. As Thomas points out, the XML can contain metainformation not
representable in any of the translation target languages, which makes
htis a powerful technique.
