Yes, fixed.

I have not thought about this issue. Currently, both methods are in
use, but this is not enough of a problem to warrant attention. Frankly,
there are many more urgent things to work on.

We already have an xml-mode, which is more lightweight. It may be that
nxml-mode is so much better that we should simply make it the default,
but I'd prefer to leave this decision till after the release.
(One reason not to make nxml-mode the default is that it is apparently
unmaintained.)
