I am looking to find the best answer to my question, but in the mean time I have resorted to monkey patching.
def _write_data_no_quote(writer, data):
"Writes datachars to writer."
data = data.replace("&", "&").replace("<", "<")
data = data.replace(">", ">")
writer.write(data)
minidom._write_data = _write_data_no_quote
Maybe this is the best way to do this. I'm not sure.
