How does that OSAX compare to the XML suite in the Standard Additions
OSAX?

If you mean the Property List Tools osax, it doesn't.  It's not an XML processing package.  It just reads in a plist file (in either format) and turns it into a record, and lets you write records back out as plist files. 

As I said, Bookmarks.plist is not necessarily XML.  Mine wasn't.  So XML-based tools weren't much use, at least not without me converting them first with plutil.  I was looking for a solution with as few steps as possible...
