You have an existing XML file.

You wish to use Freemarker to generate an XML element (in a string).

You wish  insert the XML element string in the existing XML file in a
special location.

If it that I had worked about this topic in the Akrogen Eclipse Plugin
http://akrogen.sourceforge.net/ several years ago.
My idea to insert (generated) XML element in special location is :

1) load XML file in a DOM document
2) generate XML element in a string by using Freemarker
3) load the generfated XML element in a DOM element
4) Insert the DOM element in the DOM document (you can retrieve node
location with XPath for instance or getElementsByTagName)
5) write the new DOM document in the file.

The important question is : do you wish keep the indentation, blank etc in
the XML file after inserting the generated XML element).
If you wish to do that, I had worked about this topic, but I don't remember
how I have done that.
