I was talking about cases where XML was used as the `source form' (presuming
that the author of some package preferred to write his document in that
form).
In such a case it would be very bad to modify the generated texinfo, and I
see little benefit in `studying' it (since anyone familiar with texinfo can
probably look at the XML source and figure out what's going on with little
trouble).
