It depends on what the server is doing but injecting an element can
be easily hard-coded into output templates where removing calls for
parsing. Anyway, it's nice having an alternate design strategy to
kick around. :-)
BTW, re problem of server changing element order, you probably know
this but the common solution is to store the membership and order of
signed elements elsewhere so scrambled element order in XML won't
matter much.

marker to

Hmmm. I can't see how that would be any easier.
