That's exactelly what i mean, the GUI is IMHO no problem but a "normal" app
has not only gui, it has some kind of functions!
And how to debug them inside XML (how to set a breakpoint for example - in
pure JavaScript this is no problem but INSIDE XML???)

I think, javascript is even faster (many times faster) than parsing XML

So i think, it is better to make a "offline" compiler -> just write the
(error-free) XML and generate a javascript-script.
The GUI is then ready (and error free and easier to make than writing code
by your own) and than you can beginn to fill the functionality (and if this
is ok copy it back to the XML - if you like) so that you can do the
generation more than once)
