Wonderful! Thank you so much.

I was just about to ask the same!

I agree that \xmltexentity ought to have precedence. I have an example:

    <!ENTITY nbsp "&#160;">

Which for some reason is being rendered as U+FFFD REPLACEMENT
CHARACTER (a question-mark in a diamond). I don't know why that comes
out as U+FFFD actually, since if I type a literal non-breaking space
character instead, the PDF comes out just as if I'd used ~ in TeX.
Maybe that's a bug somewhere?

In any case, I think that sometimes it is helpful to override entities
specifically for TeX processing, which aren't relevant for processing
the XML source in other ways.
