It's gotten a certain amount of attention, but given many folk have
decided _not_ to use it, that clearly can't be true.

The simple way to do that is to canonicalize into text and then compare

http://xmlconf.sourceforge.net/java) when seeing how well a SAX
parser meets "generate correct output for valid XML" requirements.
