  BTW, I just added an example of custom xmlIO
   http://xmlsoft.org/examples/index.html#InputOutput

It shows how for example an XInclude process can be used to retrieve
information from different sources (like an SQL database) as a way
to generate cleanly dynamic document. The database back-end is not
part of the example it returns a predefined document but it should be
relatively easy to implement in a concrete case.
