However, the XML specification explicitly forbids this. And we should try to follow the specifications, I think, otherwise it becomes a mess. Then again, maybe that already happened due to the other mobile browsers out there... One way forward would be defining a version of XML that has explicit error recovery rules for user agents to follow.
