The current set of XML standards is good, but it could still use a bit more modularity and consistency. Whether you call it XML 2.0 or FubarML doesn't really matter, however, something will evolve where "canonical" *is* actually canonical, and where the transformation processor spec isn't authoritative for serialization, where validating isn't an integral part of parsing and where "default values" won't get in the way of in-memory representations.
