    LOL. I very carefully chose my wording to say "of the textual portion"
    in the original message. Actually, most of the Web consists of Britney
    Spears.

    Nope. For XML 1.0, the limitation on Name characters is stuck at Unicode
    2.0. So: not cuneiform.

    See: http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/REC-xml-20060816/#NT-Letter

    (XML 1.1 fixes the Unicode 2.0 limitation for name characters, but is
    not as widely adopted (understatement)).
