I really don't think you should be parsing XML in shell script... Keep pm-utils lean and simple. Also bear in mind that as drivers are being converted to KMS (kernel mode setting) we'll need to rip out loads of quirks long term anyway. Quirks are still very needed to get things to work right now, but I don't think we need such an infrastructure around something that doesn't have a long term future on most video hardware.
