yeah it would be great to see it ported to a jQuery plugin in combination with your work and then you could actually use jQuery ajax and it would be cleaner. I've used it a lot and for me the big thing is the ability to easy set what elements are treated as array's even if only one is present (because it keeps the code using it simpler, less cases), and specifying the attribute prefix (I use '@') because I can basically use e4x like syntax.
I also made a modification to xotree locally to allow a flat serialization/deserialization so that the item becomes a list of name/value objects, the name being the 'javascript path' eg '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and the value is the simple value. This was extremely useful for fast development with GoogleGears because I could have a generic table for all objects and use the powerful 'name LIKE' queries to find objects stored in the db. I'd love to help you develop this or give feedback because it would also help promote some mvc stuff I'm build for the jQ community.
