+// BUG(rsc): Mapping between XML elements and data structures is inherently flawed:
+// an XML element is an order-dependent collection of anonymous
+// values, while a data structure is an order-independent collection
+// of named values.
+// See package json for a textual representation more suitable
+// to data structures.
+
+// Unmarshal parses the XML-encoded data and stores the result in
+// the value pointed to by v, which must be an arbitrary struct,
+// slice, or string. Well-formed data that does not fit into v is
+// discarded.
+//
+// Because Unmarshal uses the reflect package, it can only assign
+// to exported (upper case) fields. Unmarshal uses a case-sensitive
+// comparison to match XML element names to tag values and struct
+// field names.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a struct using the following rules.
+// In the rules, the tag of a field refers to the value associated with the
+// key 'xml' in the struct field's tag (see the example above).
+//
+//   - If the struct has a field of type []byte or string with tag
+//     ",innerxml", Unmarshal accumulates the raw XML nested inside the
+//     element in that field. The rest of the rules still apply.
+//
+//   - If the struct has a field named XMLName of type Name,
+//     Unmarshal records the element name in that field.
+//
+//   - If the XMLName field has an associated tag of the form
+//     "name" or "namespace-URL name", the XML element must have
+//     the given name (and, optionally, name space) or else Unmarshal
+//     returns an error.
+//
+//   - If the XML element has an attribute whose name matches a
+//     struct field name with an associated tag containing ",attr" or
+//     the explicit name in a struct field tag of the form "name,attr",
+//     Unmarshal records the attribute value in that field.
+//
+//   - If the XML element has an attribute not handled by the previous
+//     rule and the struct has a field with an associated tag containing
+//     ",any,attr", Unmarshal records the attribute value in the first
+//     such field.
+//
+//   - If the XML element contains character data, that data is
+//     accumulated in the first struct field that has tag ",chardata".
+//     The struct field may have type []byte or string.
+//     If there is no such field, the character data is discarded.
+//
+//   - If the XML element contains comments, they are accumulated in
+//     the first struct field that has tag ",comment".  The struct
+//     field may have type []byte or string. If there is no such
+//     field, the comments are discarded.
+//
+//   - If the XML element contains a sub-element whose name matches
+//     the prefix of a tag formatted as "a" or "a>b>c", unmarshal
+//     will descend into the XML structure looking for elements with the
+//     given names, and will map the innermost elements to that struct
+//     field. A tag starting with ">" is equivalent to one starting
+//     with the field name followed by ">".
+//
+//   - If the XML element contains a sub-element whose name matches
+//     a struct field's XMLName tag and the struct field has no
+//     explicit name tag as per the previous rule, unmarshal maps
+//     the sub-element to that struct field.
+//
+//   - If the XML element contains a sub-element whose name matches a
+//     field without any mode flags (",attr", ",chardata", etc), Unmarshal
+//     maps the sub-element to that struct field.
+//
+//   - If the XML element contains a sub-element that hasn't matched any
+//     of the above rules and the struct has a field with tag ",any",
+//     unmarshal maps the sub-element to that struct field.
+//
+//   - An anonymous struct field is handled as if the fields of its
+//     value were part of the outer struct.
+//
+//   - A struct field with tag "-" is never unmarshaled into.
+//
+// If Unmarshal encounters a field type that implements the Unmarshaler
+// interface, Unmarshal calls its UnmarshalXML method to produce the value from
+// the XML element.  Otherwise, if the value implements
+// encoding.TextUnmarshaler, Unmarshal calls that value's UnmarshalText method.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a string or []byte by saving the
+// concatenation of that element's character data in the string or
+// []byte. The saved []byte is never nil.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an attribute value to a string or []byte by saving
+// the value in the string or slice.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an attribute value to an Attr by saving the attribute,
+// including its name, in the Attr.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element or attribute value to a slice by
+// extending the length of the slice and mapping the element or attribute
+// to the newly created value.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element or attribute value to a bool by
+// setting it to the boolean value represented by the string. Whitespace
+// is trimmed and ignored.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element or attribute value to an integer or
+// floating-point field by setting the field to the result of
+// interpreting the string value in decimal. There is no check for
+// overflow. Whitespace is trimmed and ignored.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a Name by recording the element
+// name.
+//
+// Unmarshal maps an XML element to a pointer by setting the pointer
+// to a freshly allocated value and then mapping the element to that value.
+//
+// A missing element or empty attribute value will be unmarshaled as a zero value.
+// If the field is a slice, a zero value will be appended to the field. Otherwise, the
+// field will be set to its zero value.
