+1 and +1.

I've done a lot of xml work in Python, and unless you've got a
particular reason for wanting to use the dom, ElementTree is the only
sane way to go.

I recently converted a middling-sized app from using the dom to using
ElementTree, and wrote up some guidelines for the process for the
client. I can try and shake it out of my clients lawyers if it would
help with this or others are interested.
