I've been messing around in certain corners of XML for a few years now,
and I can confirm that "oblivious" is a totally appropriate usage, when
some applications of XML are considered!

[I'm sure you meant 'obvious' - it was so obvious to me that 'obvious'
was what you meant, that I only noticed it the second time around.]

I also find namespaces difficult. Raw XML is easy-peasy, in principle.
But (for example) some of the things that XSLT has given rise to are
write-only - rather like regexes; it's often easier to start again, than
to try to fix the bug. I prefer a procedural language, to a declarative
language that is being used to describe a procedure.
