---------------------------------------------------------------------
OK, this turned out to be a can of worms, since there is no legal way to
represent the 0 character in xml.
Since the xml file tries to stay compatible with ant, this is not really going
to change. There are basically only 2 options:
Encode illegally (which is the current solution, giving � or just strip it
away).
I think this issue is a won't fix, I'll let it simmer for a day or two before
giving up ;)

> PrettyPrintXmlWriter encoding of \u0000 in xpp3dom attribute

> Key: MSHARED-258
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHARED-258
> Project: Maven Shared Components
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-shared-utils
> Affects Versions: maven-shared-utils-0.1
> Reporter: Kristian Rosenvold
>
> When porting surefire to m-s-u I came across the case where
> unicode \u0000 gets encoded as � in an xml attribute in the
> prettyprintxmlwriter. This is probably the reason why the
> PrettyPrintXmlWriter was forked into surefire originally.
> Now from SUREFIRE-456 it seems like it's specification-wise illegal to do
> this encoding, but it does actually preserve the character value of
> non-printable characters.
> So the more I type on this issue, the more it seems like the forked PPXW
> actually does the best-effort "right" thing when it comes to xml encoding
> "any" string as long as we want to stay human readable....?
> I need some input on this one ;)
