Lars,
I was looking at Section 2.4 Character Data and Markup:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/REC-xml-20001006#syntax
Which seemed to me to rule out the NCR for > in situations other
than "]]>" for compatibility reasons.
"If they are needed elsewhere, they must be escaped using either
numeric character references or the strings "&" and "<"
respectively. The right angle bracket (>) may be represented using
the string ">", and must, for compatibility, be escaped using
">" or a character reference when it appears in the string "]]>"
in content, when that string is not marking the end of a CDATA
section."
