Chrome unlikely to support XPath 3.1

I don’t agree. Never touch a running system! I think you have no idea in how many software implementations XML plays an important role. Just because it’s not hot and fancy it does not mean it’s bad.

I don't care about hot and fancy. I care that XML is a usability nightmare and makes my eyes bleed. It should not be used in anything new. Part of achieving that goal is to not continue to implement and support it.
