I already pointed this out upthread: by keeping the syntax a subset,
you don't need a MicroXML parser that can deliver the XML data model;
any XML parser will do the job.

It's true that MicroXML doesn't require namespace declarations, but I
would expect that people who use prefixes would also supply declarations.
