What a tricky question.

On the market, "my time" has negative value -- people who spend 
relevantly to it spend more in directions that reduce that
resource without using than is spent utilizing or extending
it.  Still, I understand what you mean to ask....

What do you mean by "XML"?  Do you mean DOM?  Typing systems?
Query systems?  Machine-to-machine exchange formats?  Awiki
is orthogonal to and complementary to those things -- Awiki
can make those things more valuable.

Do you mean "XML syntax?"  That would seem to me to have very
different (appropriate, not practiced) use cases than what
I have been describing.
