I use lots of XML to drive automation, file system structure,
validation, user initial input, etc, so pretty much everywhere I make
use of xml. much of the data (that may be user or project specific) is
submitted as XML, then use that to populate tables (which BTW - I
found lately to be a great way to share data between module [something
that looks like a properties object]). I also frequently generate and/
or convert chunks of xml to dictionary objects (wrapper to make a
dictionary behave like an object - looks like web2py's storage) so I
can run through data by doing a.b.c.d (which I find very useful at
times). These are some of the ways where I use xml on daily basis.

So my use of it in a web2py context goes more towards DAL stand-alone
than in a 'over the web' context, but you're welcome to anything I
have if interested. I have lots of code and can probably make samples
depending on what you need, - I mostly stick to etree (maybe just a
preference), because I like that I can reset .root anywhere i like and
can easily group similar items).
