Google does not see the need to index XML content on the grounds that
there is none out there.

And indeed, if you use Gogle to look for it, there isn't :) nicely
circular.

Google has been asked to index XML  content and W3C staff even showed
them how simple that was for any +xml media type, and even volunteered
code (which is trivial). But, little response.

Maybe they need more customers to ask them. Hint.
