Is it still considered good practice to GRDDL as a way of 
extracting RDF from custom XML formats?  I notice the linked 
data platform (LDP) candidate recommendation doesn't makes 
no mention of GRDDL.

My XML files logically map to an RDF dataset with multiple 
named graphs.  Obviously I can't express that in RDF/XML, so 
I'd need to use something like N-Quad or TriG to serialise 
the RDF corresponding to my XML.  However generating these 
formats is difficult in XSLT because of the need to escape 
characters in literals and URIs.  Is there a better way of 
achieving this?
