Base64 encoding does not use any characters that are special characters in
XML, therefore enclosing it in CDATA is completely pointless.

Basically client wants xml from HTML input and we provide
them xml along with image files. He asks us to embed the
images inside the xml instead of sending the images files
separately and they prefer to use base 64 representation for
the same. We have a generalize xml application where we put
image as <img.embed>base 64 representation of the
image</img.embed> in the form of tag. Now we need to
transform this tag (img.embed) into <![CDATA[base 64
representation of the image]]>. They have their own
application where they use php to generate the image once again.
