Sorry I meant this in the context of the parcel loader - not general
XML. From talking to a few folks:
* <a b="c"/> is one thing
and the following two things are the same as each other, but different
than the above
* <a><b>c</b></a>
* <a><b value="c"/></a>
So at least the latter of those two is a little bit less verbose.

and so forth?
i.e. is it correct to assume that these three statements are
identical?
* <tag attr="value"/>
* <tag><attr>value</attr></tag>
* <tag><attr value="value"/></tag> (I just saw this
for the first time yesterday)
None of these are the same.
1. an element named "tag" with an attribute named "attr". The value of
the attr attribute is value
2. an element named "tag" with a child element named "attr" whose
content is value
3. an element named "tag" with a child element named "attr" with an
attribute named "value". The value of the "value" attribute is value
