There seems to be some confusion here, and I understand why this has
arisen, but let me repeat what Chris also has mentioned: There's
absolutely no trace of XML left after a template is compiled (not so
for Genshi templates, but that's a different story).
The *only* reason I opted for lxml is that it seemed to provide the
best parsing functionality. However, ``xml.etree`` aka ElementTree
seems to be a good candidate, too.

See above.
