There are 2 threads:

- an ultra-simple version/profile/subset to make XML easier to
generate and work with for the masses

- XML 2.0

They could ultimately be the same thing, or the latter could distract
from the former...

Who's asking? I stumbled across this from Henri:

http://hsivonen.iki.fi/producing-xml/

That highlights the problem the masses face - 19 steps to avoid being a bozo.

Even after following that guide, what do you do - use SAX like events
to generate the XML?

The masses really need to be able to create XML by concatenating strings.
