Well, let's start by seeing if there is.

I've seen three people here in favour of it. I've seen you saying that one
variety (the XML one) is ugly, but I don't know if you think that that
outweighs the benefits of explicit delimiters.

So: is there anybody here - including John - who thinks that the chosen
format SHOULD NOT use explicit delimiters?
