Why, exactly? After all, your XML data has to live somewhere, and I'd
guess it will be a file at the end of the day. So how is setting a value
in an XML structure fundamentally different from writing that value to a file?

And we have a structured file system, we have change notification on files,
we have fine grained ACLs for file systems.

I'm sure there are a lot of things that can be done in XML that would
require hackery to map to a file system, but I am not yet convinced that
these features are absolutely necessary for the problem at hand.
