My particular problem would be solved by checkingDecoder.Strict here:

go/src/encoding/xml/xml.go

Line 1140 in 282cd56

if !isInCharacterRange(r) {

Alternatively, all character validation (including UTF-8) could be ignored and let Go's 0xfffd take over if a user ever wants a string from StringData.

go/src/encoding/xml/xml.go

Line 1133 in 282cd56

for len(buf) > 0 {
