Any use of PIs requires that the application interpret the contents of the
PI.  If you make the syntax of the PI the same as XML start-tags, then you
may be able to use your XML parser to parse them.  (It would handy if XML
parsers provided a function that parsed a string like the contents of a
start-tag.)
