CDATA: Almost no overhead, and part of the XML Standard that I actually 
think of as useful.

DTDs: Never said I was, only that I could. :-P They are part of the 
standard, and I can think of some uses for them. But not right now.

Unicode: We've already got partial support, I'm just not sure if MinML 
does all the checking it should.

It also handles <!-- ... --> line numbers properly.

Anyway, I'll stop talking about it now. It's bad luck to argue for 
vapor.
