Oh yes! *claps his hands* XML! *gets shiny eyes* We absolutely have not 
enough bloat in QEmu! You could integrate libxml2. Or even better, write 
yet-another XML parser!

And encodings! XML has automatic encodings! We got to have them. Yes, 
encodings. It is international!

And you can put blobs into an XML! Isn't that a great feature we could 
use?

The best of all, it's a Best Practice! Plus, you can write a DTD for it 
and _validate_ it! Or even an _XML Schema_!

...

You get the idea.
