Description
The implementation in https://github.com/servo/html5ever/blob/master/xml5ever/src/serialize/mod.rs is fairly simplistic, and does not reflect the complexity described by https://w3c.github.io/DOM-Parsing/#dfn-xml-serialization.

Research direction

Identify the requirements the implementation does not cover and use conformance checks derived from that specification to determine when serialization is complete.
