According to the corrigenda, attribute values and character data
can now contain anything except (hex) 0000-0008, 000B-000C, 000E-001F,
(ASCII controls), D800-DFFF (surrogates), and FFFE-FFFF (non-characters).
Everything else should be allowed.
There are some rules in Appendix B of XML that allow you to leverage
the methods in Character. When I get a chance, i"ll write some Java
code that correctly recognizes XML name and name-start characters.
The big tables are already in the java.lang.Character class.
