[issue43703] xml.etree parser does not accept valid control characters

[Serhiy Storchaka]

It is a known issue, see issue11804 and issue39512.

In short, the underlying library for XML parsing (expat) does not support XML 1.1 and does not have plans to support it. And seems that XML 1.1 is a dead standard if it is not supported in popular parsing libraries.

>From where you get your XML data? What programs generated them?
