maybe because it's easier to write a generic xslt for  persisted
datasets if they are all named the same. otherwise one would have to
find a structural pattern to the tree independent of naming to order
anything that came out in this way.

Oddly, over on xml-dev people are busy complaining about formats that do

<div class="monty">
  <span class="python"/>
</div

rather than

<monty><python/></monty>

Why do you think it's bad to use field names as element names?
