You write:

For better or worse, it's what I do best.  The problem with focused
discussions/sequential monologues is just as great though (missing the
forest because you keep bumping into trees).

At this point, I'm not.  I'm interested in supporting those who want
to work with XML, which is quite a different thing requiring a
different point of view.

I'm not particularly interested in "an implementation"; there are many
and most would really suck to maintain if you were doing it as a
service for others, rather than to get your own work done.

Which implementations of XML features for Elisp do you consider
essential for getting some of your work done?  Give it some serious
consideration, give me a list, and I'll see about getting them into
the XEmacs package tree.  I might even lobby for addition to Emacs.
