    Where did you see that XML files need to be conformant to the Unicode
    standard?

    XML files are definitely NOT plain text (if this was the case, then it would
    be forbidden to interpret "<" as a special markup character instead of the
    standard Unicode base character with its associated glyph)...

    _Only_ fragments of XML files are plain-text and are fully conforming to the
    Unicode standard.
