Well-formedness error. Conformant XML processors *must* halt and catch
fire.
XML requires that attribute values be quoted.

That might work (at least, assuming that you put the attribute values in
quotes). I'd be surprised if even the mostly wildly non-conforming XML
parser failed to catch that.
For what you seem to want, though, tag soup might be a more appropriate
API (well, it might be tied to HTML, but something of that nature).
Dunno that anyone's bothered to write such a thing; it's harder to write
something that can handle ill-formed documents than to write a
more-or-less conformant processor.
