I'm really not trying to beat a nearly-dead horse here (I swear!), but the XML
spec says in §2.6:
[17] PITarget ::= Name - (('X' | 'x') ('M' | 'm') ('L' | 'l'))
If I'm reading it correctly, this only reserves "xml", and variations in letter
cases, for internal use. Whether or not it's bad form to create PIs of the form
<?xml-whatever?> is a separate issue, but the spec doesn't forbid it.
Like I said before, bad form is bad form and I'll alter it in the end, I just
haven't thought of a better name for it yet. :( And again, thanks for the
responses, they've been really helpful.

Wouldn't
"xml-" be the most appropriate prefix here?
No, such names are reserved for other use. You can call it result-xml or
_xml_result or pretty much anything you like. Why trample on the
reserved names?
even w3c specs avoid doing this, consider xslt for example an early draft
had an attribute xml-declaration on xsl:output,
but they thought better of it and changed to
omit-xml-declaration
