OK. `man ascii` says 0x1d is "GS (group separator)", not completely bogus :) I wonder how/why it becomes ␝ in XML, but quick googling says that entity seems to be '␝' which indeed reads GS :) At the KConfig level, this is good for catching people who don't use the proper APIs that encapsulate that stuff :-) But at the kconfig_compiler level, people want to be able to write XML files by hand. So "modifying the schema to be able to specify subgroups in the XML" sounds like the way to go, not coming up with yet another weird character (it might as well be this one then, for consistency).
