Bottom line up front: for the actual bulk of the work — building, parsing,
serializing, round-tripping, and XPath-querying XML trees — pyuppsala.etree
is a very high-fidelity, largely drop-in replacement for lxml.etree. Of
~1200 tests (stdlib + lxml + pyuppsala combined); only a handful needed
pyuppsala-specific behavior, and the fastkml-side changes needed were small and surgical (four files, no redesign). The rough edges are concentrated in three
places: recover-mode parsing, XSD numeric validation, and namespace-prefix resolution timing
