Dear community,

how can we XML marshal a struct field depending on the value of another 
struct field in the same struct?

Playground Example: https://go.dev/play/p/vfRB-GfzZ54

My approaches so far:

   - Use a custom type for the Feature field and implement xml.Marshaler. 
   However MarshalXML has no access to other fields, so I might need some sort 
   of "closure", not sure how to put that together
   - Implement xml.Marshaler for the entire struct - due to the number of 
   fields included in the real struct (> 100), I guess this would be a lot of 
   work..
   - Use separate types for each "ItemType" - this replicates a lot of work 
   because most struct fields are needed for both ItemType values


I hope someone with more experience can give me some hints or tips.

Thank you and all the best,
Steffen
