The only thing we could justify under the feature freeze regime is to add the
XML syntax into 8.2, operating on text data.  That will change when the xml
type goes into 8.3.  So we'd be adding a feature right now with the
announcement that the feature will break incompatibly in the next release.
That doesn't seem very useful to me.
