To chime in with my two cents, I'm using Noah's UNQ classes to do object 
level granularity (multiple types of objects in a single file) and it works 
fine.

If you don't have a requirement to actually use XML (such as to communicate 
with a program not written in LPC), you might consider simply using the UNQ 
classes from Phantasmal.  You'll have to do a little work to use them in a 
mudlib other than Phantasmal (mostly dealing with Phantasmal's use of 
Phrases), but it's much less than the effort of creating an XML parser.
