| In the interest of technical accuracy, I'll point out that there's
| nothing that says a processor is not allowed to use CDATA to escape
| text. (It might be an interesting switch on a serializer: use CDATA
| for any text node that contains more than 5% entity references or
| something...)

I think giving serializers a switch similar to that used by the XSLT
serializers would be a good idea: a list of elements, the contents of
which will be wrapped in CDATA sections.
