I asked the same question.  It was noted that the xml functions aren't
overloaded like that and that it's cleaner to introduce datum specific
behaviors if you don't overload.

I don't really agree with that or any of the naming styles that are in
the form inputtype_func() but I think most people are on the other
side of the argument.
