      Using writeCharacters() should yield output that is parseable by QXmlStreamReader.
      But if the source string contains, for example, the ESC character (0x1B), that won't get escaped, and as a result, the reader will raise an error.
      Either writeCharacters() should escape those characters, or QXmlStreamReader must accept them in the input stream.
