Well that's all fine and good, but it still makes it nearly impossible
for anyone who wants to also _use_ their own changes but who doesn't
work well with XML sources.

Sure I can manually edit the plain text output and lock myself into
never reformatting the entire document from source again, and thus give
up ever using other changes with my own, at least until the original
incorporates my own in a suitable way.

I.e. the approach you suggest is totally unworkable in the real world,
at least for someone such as myself who uses NetBSD as a third-party
developer and not just as an end user.
