The problem is that, the XML is not really well-formed, the tags actually

<data.6541237895.field2>field two val</data.6541237895.field2>


This is well formed XML alright. Element names start with a letter and not with any case combo of "xml". Whether the design is good or bad is another matter.


it was XML for which it would be impossible to write a DTD because the *data 
lived in the tag space*.

"Well-formed" and "valid" are terms meaning different things, although a valid XML document is of course well-formed.
