Yes, it is very simple, but so is all the XML I've ever actually
encountered. I've seen ugly, convoluted HTML and I've seen name/value
pairs in verbose XML format, but very very little in the middle.
(Heck, I just used std.string.indexOf("<tagname") for quite a while.)

This is probably due to my observation bias, with all my XML
experience coming from working with web services.
