The doctype and xml declaration outputting should be possible,
it will most likely be possible by Genx misuse anyway: You could do it by 
opening FILE* stream
and writing raw BOM, xml declaration and DOCTYPE there before
starting using "legal" outputting functions. I think for this reason Genx 
should have
on/off setting for xml declaration outputting.

I guess ability to use multiple encodings in genx internally would not be 
realistic approach but abstract output would allow using for example 
libiconv methods to OUTPUT in different encodings which i think is good 
thing. An ability to write custom xml declaration and write custom BOM must 
be possible for this too.
