You can use XMLC with a given template at developement time, work 
against a compiled interface and exchange the underlying HTML at runtime 
- as long as the new html still meets the structural implications of the 
first template. This means that they are structurally equivalent from 
the view of xmlc.

So basically you should be able to use xmlc, as long as your app doesn't 
need to dynamically change the ids and types of nodes found under these.
