+2 for the -buffer variants. Maybe -region is better (more flexible).

I think we can leave xml.el alone for now except maybe renaming its
internal function xml-parse-string (which does no parsing). And there is
xmltok another parser that does validating.

It'd be extremely useful for emacs to have a set of solid and stable xml
API.
