I started something which could be used as a replacement of std.xml. 
Once it's a little more ready, I could contribute it to Phobos. It 
includes two tokenizer APIs (a templated callback tokenizer and a range 
tokenizer), and one DOM (not really based on the W3C DOM). The goal is 
to support all of XML at the tokenizer level, but skipping the internal 
subset of the doctype in the DOM.

Currently, the range API would be more useful if there was a way to 
switch on the type of an Algebraic.
