This could be written in XML. Has anyone done this?
Are any standards about that?

Wouldn't this be more topical in a XML group? Here's a quick
pull from Google:

Well that pointer leads to a message that is... 8 years old.
All the links mentioned there are dead.

Besides, I already generate XML. What I need is some way of
interoperating with other generators...

I don't think there is any codified standard for this. You might
just have to study the output, (and possibly the source code),
of other such tools and decide in which areas you want to
interoperate, with how many such tools, and where not.

There must be a de facto standard for this.
