@ndelargy I hope I was able to help and you were able to make progress. Thanks you for giving a simple example case.

I'll keep this open, since it would be helpful if someone investigated whether fixing this is possible.

Merging an interpolator could be done. I probably wrote this above already, but the dependency on scala-xml has been removed from the Scala compiler in 2.13 and in sbt 1.2.x....

I'm less familiar with the build, but I believe: 1. it should be able to be turned back on for Java, 2. but can only be `BinaryCompatible` for Scala.js 3....

The Java parser that the scala-xml library depends on isn't available from Scala.js at run time. Note that if it's a literal string you're trying to parse, you should be...

Perhaps, `DOMParser` could be used to handle XML strings in Javascript-land? We'd have to write a new "factory" to translate the `Document` to scala-xml objects.

Outside of `scala.xml.factory.XMLLoader`, the only other way to parse XML strings is the `scala.xml.parsing.ConstructingParser`. It's a little clunky, so I'm less than inclined to recommend it. It also has tiny...

I'm sure it's just XML 1.0 and not 1.1. I'm also not surprised it's inconsistent with the spec. The implementation for [isNameChar](https://github.com/scala/scala-xml/blob/079426d/shared/src/main/scala/scala/xml/parsing/TokenTests.scala#L51) in scala-xml hasn't fundamentally changed in 20 years....

This used to work when the code for `apiMappings` was added in #180. That was the days of JDK9 and Scala 2.13.0-M3. It seems it worked all the way to...

It is possible. This was a lighterweight solution, but there is also a particular configuration scala-xml has that sbt-api-mappings is missing about the `java.xml` module.
