I'm definitely not looking for the </ tag> in the >> operator. Is it guaranteed 
that the </ character sequence is not to be found in the value itself (i.e. it 
is escaped)?

In the case of the xml archive I'd rather have some other kind of operator that 
passes the value itself, not leaving the >> operator of each class to have to 
check for the </ character sequence, something like:

template<class char_type>
void operator () (const char_type* start, const char_type* end)
{
}

which hides the archive implementation, and only passes on the correct value 
when loading the archive. For saving, the << operator is just fine.
