You can write perfectly good xml or html without obstart(). The two have
nothing to do with each other.
But compressing a page then expanding it just to make the code more readable
doesn't make sense. Just expand it in the file and serve it statically.
There's much less overhead.
I think the only time I've really needed obstart() is when I wanted to wrap
phpinfo() in another page. In that case I needed to get the output, parse it,
getting rid of the extra tags, then print it.
