God knows something to ease the closing tag verbosity would make XML at least twice as useable. I wonder if there's anything in the grammar that would conflict with </> as a closing tag? I'm almost tempted to muck with libxml and add it for personal use.

- mnarayan01 14y agoIf I installed it at the system level, then anything that linked against libxml/libxml2 would have the enhancement. Which is also the biggest reason I'm not going to do it...I'd invariably end up distributing XML with the sugarfied close tag.
