No, I am sorry, it's cannot be external module. Or cannot be without losting
functionality and elegance of SQL/XML. It's really depend on parser. People
which generate XML from database used it. But not now, because PostgreSQL
don't support it. But it's the moust faster way for generating XML files,
10x faster then PHP or Perl. Please look again on this patch. I am not sure
about solution without ANSI compatibility.
