  Reading CDATA nodes is easy. Sending, however, is hampered by the
  fact that I cannot use binding within CDATA nodes, and all text is URL
  encoded.
 
  So, if I do this:
 
  username = Jesse;
  lastname = Warden;
 
  nodes
  node{username}/node
  node![CDATA[{lastname}]]/node
  /nodes
 
  It'll look like this:
 
  nodes
  nodeJesse/node
  node![CDATA[{lastname}]]/node
  /nodes
 
  If I try assembling manually, it still URL encodes it:
 
  var request:XML = request
  moo
  gooHello/goo
  pan3/pan
  /moo
  /request;
  var sup:String = sup dog;
  var s:String = ![CDATA[;
  s += sup;
  s += ]];
  request.moo.appendChild(gai{s}/gai);
  trace(request);
 
  This is a problem because I'm sending a URL through E4X with URL
  parameters, and it's encoding it twice; basically, my  are becoming
  amp;.
 
  I asked the server guy to just let me send this particular value as an
  attribute so we could move on, but... no dice, my problem.
