My 2 cents: So long as it is a well-formed XML document and doesn't look horribly ugly in an editor, it really doesn't matter what we use, and I don't think we need a policy for it. For scripting, I would recommend using an XML parser/emitter. Compatibility with sed scripts is not something I care about.
