You'd want XML forced on you so that you don't generate broken XML, or embed someone else's untrusted XML into your XML. An XML-based templating language understands the context of where a variable is being used, and thus knows how to escape that variable on output. Mako does offer the ability to automatically escape unspecified variables, though, so you might want to look at that to avoid all the potential pitfalls untrusted input slipping through.
