XML is the way to go.  I wrote my own client:

with a bunch of keyboard shortcuts.  Emacs would probably have been 
superior, but I don't like emacs.  I tried every other PIM-, 
list-maker, or database-frontend in Debian and gave up and wrote one 
that works the way I want it.

It's great for <1mb structured databases.
