That would only be possible if the suggested changes were handled by some
kind of pre-processor. I don't think such a pre-processor would be viable;
it would need to have all the features of an XML parser itself. However, I
don't see updating the XML parser as being a problem, so long as the
extensions are controlled by options which are disabled by default.
