Yes, I'm sure there are. This is to be expected given that the outcome
they are attempting to accomplish is untenable with Emacs' current
limitations. I wish you the best of luck in your ongoing endeavors to
struggle with this. I can assure you though that I certainly won't be
extending my efforts towards pushing that rock up any hills.

I wasn't aware that nxml's parser is broken.
Has anyone informed James Clark?

Why should nxml-mode need to do such a thing?

Isn't this like asking one to construct a lisp interpreter capable of
parsing non-well-formed S-expressions?

Besides, what does nxml's parser have to do with buffer-offer-save
being made permanent local?
