A significant stakeholder is in favour of using an XML encoding for SPF.

How do you guys feel about that?

In my view XML is overrated and overused. It is good for (1) Document Markup 
(2) The Semantic Web. I almost screamed when they started using it for 
communications protocols (eg SOAP) and this suggestion falls into the same 
category.

Encoding/Obfuscating SPF records as XML is just insane. Why on earth would you 
want to do it?
