Lo and behold, R.xml.class.getDeclaredFields() was picking up Android.R, because I was not in the activities package. I guess there are no xml resources in Android.R. So there is some hope for this method yet.
I don't think the AssetManager will work, though. It's returning "images", sounds, and "webkit" for empty path, and nothing for "xml" path.
