I must confess confusion about exactly what you want to do.

It may (or may not) be helpful for you to know that gellmu provides a
bridge from LaTeX to XML in various ways.  Its "article" document type
has (and eventually will have more) element attributes for providing
the level of extensibility an author might want in order to have
translation to semantic formats.  Moreover, it should be possible
using gellmu's newcommand facility to write things out concisely.
