Well, JSP documents must also be well-formed. So I think, it would be
natural to require this here, too.

If down-stream users want to not pay the price for well-formedness, they
should use the traditional approach using <%= %>. Event there,
developers are required to apply some form of well-formedness.

So, I would be all for using an XML parser for espx scripts. This
requires more from the programmer but gives back much more.
