Hi,
may be, I got it wrong all the time, but I thought that XML is a
(meta-)language by means of which I construct markup languages - and this is
the extensibility. I use XML like this for 3 years now because it matches my
needs - and I will go on. IMHO, the extensibility of XML is a builtin fact.

I use a perl DOM API which preserves wellformedness when manipulating the
DOM-tree. For me it's easy to modify the tree structure, and it's not likely
to break it.
Curious about what others say.
