The text in the CDATA section is not actually ignored, it is just left unparsed, which makes it ideal for -- for example -- embedding scripting language code, or text from a resource which cannot be reasonably trusted not to violate proper XML textual syntax, such as using the < entity rather than "<".
Put another way: the text between "<![CDATA[" and "]]>" is left as-is and otherwise treated as "just" another block of text. Its the XML string literal.
Add CDATA tag support for Arc's XML parser.
Note: As soon as Tango incorporates XML functionality, Arc's XML will be dropped.
