No flag. I don't know how to do this for the writer. For the xmlsave
module, when saving a tree you can use the xmlSaveSetEscape() to define
a custom escaping routine to be used by the serializer. But this option
is not available in the writer ...
So I have no obvious soluton for you. in general libxml2 is about
providing support for the XML spec and what you're asking is beyond
the requirement of the spec.
