That doesn't belong in the pickle module.  An XML format to store
Python-specific data structures doesn't make sense.  Storing data
in XML makes total sense, but should probably be guided by some XML
standard and not by the set of data types that happen to be available
in Python.  Put it in the xml module.

Note that xmlrpclib.py already has a way to do this, for the data
types supported by XMLRPC.
