The problem is that it is not as standard as you may think. People will want to upload and download XML but everybody will have/ expect a different XML formatting because it really depends on where it comes from. XML is a standard for making up text/data with tags but says nothing about what those tags should be.
That is why Python provides the SAX library so that you can customize it with the XML parsing rules that you need. It would make sense to give web2py the ability to read the same XML that it generates but the XML that is generated .
