Ideally, Emacs should provide a > single interface for parsing XML. I've just checked in a change that renames the libxml functions to xml-parse-html-string-internal and xml-parse-string-internal. I've also made the parse tree format identical to that of xml.el. Now xml.el should be changed to make use of these functions. I think we should introduce xml-parse-file-internal as well, for the sake of xml-parse-file; it doesn't make sense to load a file into Emacs if it's just going to be passed to libxml2.
