Why not use XML as a basis for GTP? It could handle:

1. Private extensions by using namespaces

GTP is not XML. If you want to develop an XML based protocol please don't call it GTP. We would object if the name GTP is applied to something too different from what is already implemented and in use.

The purpose of this list is to standardize the GTP, not to dream up something different.
