Since the general consensus by the developers is not to remove the short_tags
or even disable them. Perhaps we should consider alternate solutions to this
problem. Given the buzzword popularity of XML and its slowly growing
popularity among website designers (XHTML) this issue is likely to come up in
the future yet again.
The solution I would like to offer, is a patch that adds special handling for
<?xml. Thus preventing the language parser from attempting to parse data
inside <?xml as PHP source.
