Well, much of the definition of XML assumes the use of Unicode, so I
don't feel entirely badly about there being such a restriction.
It seems likely to me that opening its use to other encodings has a
considerable risk of breaking due to a loss of, erm, "closure," in the
mathematical sense. Or, alternatively, opening a Pandora's Box of
needing to do translations to prevent mappings from breaking.

If you add a couple of i's to Microsoft's stock ticker symbol, you get
'misfit'. This is, of course, not a coincidence.
