Unfortunately, "<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>" is now missing, too.
Can't you just write this to the file yourself?
Of course, but it feels a little bit unclean. The other reason I did not mention (sorry, really bad wording from my side) is that xml in general does not feel dedicated enough to what I need, i.e. it's too verbose in the end (I have lots of 3d/4d-vectors and 4x4 matrices, complex recursive/cyclic/self referencing graphs, and so forth, and it should be human readable and writable). I think I will use a custom format that I already had in the past, and go use spirit once again to build a kiss-conformat serialization framework.
