Another potential problem is that document generation from XML source may
involve more than just running xml2rfc. Some documents are built up from
multiple files in complex ways that cannot easily be duplicated by the I-D
manager.

That's true. But at some point of time, XML source *was* fed into
xml2rfc, right? I would argue that *that* XML source should be
submitted; submitting something that needs additional non-standard
preprocessing seems a bit pointless to me.
Only when the document is finished does it make sense to generate a
self-contained XML source for it.
I don't agree with that.
But anyway, if you think it doesn't make sense to generate
self-contained XML for each I-D, why submit the non-self-contained XML
source at all?
