These tools are broken when dealing with multibyte characters.
For instance, with:
foo = aéb
a "grep 'a.b' file" will find nothing in the C locale.

I disagree about "readable", except on small files. For instance,
in the default .subversion/config file, the group names are lost
among the comments. And this format is also easy to break without
noticing the breakage.

This is your opinion. I disagree. XML is nice for things like
validation and complex operations. XML is easy (easier) to edit
if you use the "right" tools.
