Ah! Of course!  CDATA was specifically created for this.

If you can limit yourself to XML (including XHTML) and SGML,
using CDATA sections is almost certainly the best answer.
The one caveat is that HTML doesn't support CDATA directly.
However, if you're just *processing* it as XML, you can always
read it as XML and then transform it however you like.
