Ah, yes, but people who edit their XML in a text editor probably would
be capable of starting a command-line application. What I'm
suggesting is that *something* had to be written -- either the simple
filter or full CDATA support for all DOM applications. Full CDATA
support won (love it or leave it), but the other might have been a
little easier.
All the best,
David
