Lua+XML = forced love? (Re: FYI: what's OOP's jargons and complexities?)

Instead of fighting the XML world, I think it'd be best for Lua to be 
recognized as an "integrates well with XML" product.  I mean, reading 
in XML _seamlessly_ into Lua tables, and output, too.

I will be needing this shortly, since working with XML in C is .. 
tedious. Anyone care to promote their favorite XML binding, I'll be 
listening. :)

ps. it wouldn't hurt if this kind of functionality was even one of the 
standard libraries.
