Interesting. It doesn't look a lot like raw XML Maybe that's the point ;-)
but it certainly integrates better into C++. That too.
You're optimizing the wrong case, a toy example.
Its best usage is obviously for an XML template, where variables directly maps to the contents of an XML structure.
Yes, that's where I've used it most.
To do that, people usually invent pseudo-languages that integrate into XML, but then they end up duplicating full programming languages, with an even uglier syntax.
