I think markup's a completely different kind of toolset, with virtues
you don't appear to value.  

Markup is capable of reaching people who'll never need or want to go
anywhere near a stack trace.  It's built that way explicitly, at a
pretty high cost.  Throwing away those features while working with XML
seems perverse at best.
