If we write out bars at some point, one way of doing this I've considered
would be to write out the XRC (i.e. the XML) ourselves. Another XML
library use. I am not enough of an XML guru to tell you whether that
would be better using DOM interfaces or not.

OTOH I was thinking getting wxWindows to /write/ their XML contents back
should probably be contributed to wxWidgets (given that's what reads
them).

Note there is some limited XML handling in wx itself. It's probably
insufficient for what you want, but I thought I'd mention it.
