True.
But the documentation states "It is common, for example, to use the XML store early in a project life-cycle, since it is fairly human-readable and you can inspect a file to determine whether or not it contains the data you expect."
Upon inspecting the XML store I was surprised to find that the entity and attribute names had been altered and so I was curious if there was a reason for doing this.
