Comment:

 The xml parser used by the boost serialization library is guarenteed only
 to be able to parse output by the serialization library itself. So the
 syntax

 <symbol/>

 Is not legal.

 Regarding the larger subject - Editing XML files produced by the
 serialization library. This is an interesting subject - but in no way a
 trivial one. If someone were interested in this, he could make a
 different xml archive which would include emitting a DTD or xml schema
 which might make it more "editable". But currently this is considered
 beyond the scope of the serialization library.
