I don't see any point to inventing yet another markup language for 
internal data transfer; I'd much rather use something that:

1) is a known, implemented standard
2) has standard support in PHP
3) has standard support in JavaScript

If you feel the need to describe the syntax, you've already lost time 
and gained nothing. :)
