Thanks, I didn't realize XMLLiterals have to be canonical.

You don't mean XMLLiterals are going away, do you?
Escaped XML would cut off all XML processing tools (I heavily use XSLT
on RDF/XML, for example).

Not going way.

They have a special status in that their lexical form is changed by the RDF/XML parser to be canonical, they don't behave like normal datatypes.

The RDF/XML behaviour will remain but, for example, Turtle parsers will not be required to canonicalize.

[[ http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-rdf-wg/2012May/0198.html
RESOLVED: in RDF 1.1: [a] XMLLiterals are optional; [b] lexical space consists of well-formed XML fragments; [c] the canonical lexical form is http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-exc-c14n/, as defined in RDF 2004; [d] the value space consists of (normalized) DOM trees.

The best RDF-WG is going to do is make XMLLiteral less mandatory.

'Less mandatory'? :-)

I was writing a similar reply as this came in. It's horrible trying to
explain it, and it will be nice not to have to do that post-rdf 1.1.
