The freeware flight simulator FlightGear uses XML for designing
aircraft panels, including fairly complicated gauges, from scratch by
modelling a series of layers (texture, text, etc.) and
transformations:

I've noticed quite a few freeware games using XML for their config and
save formats -- no real interop hit from any of this, of course.
All the best,
