actually, i just started hacking using serialize = and casting 
everything to stdClass - although this may be easier and quicker - I 
think the XML stuff is quite nice, if it could avoid the ]]> cdata issue.

I just had a look at the  XMLRPC code, it avoids the repligard ]]> issue 
by not using CDATA and just doing a htmlspecialchars on the whole lot. - 
this may be a better answer for the phpmole  parser - to go back to 
using expat as the parser.

I was also considering XML-RPC for the apd debugger, I just added socket 
layer comunication to it, so next step is to add a breakpoint stepping 
debugger to it.
