/**
* Inspects inspection-result-1.0.xsd-compliant files (such as
* metawidget-metadata.xml).
*
* XmlInspector is a very simple Inspector: it takes as its input XML in the same format that
* Inspectors usually output. It can be useful for declaring 'ad hoc' UI entities that do not map to
* any Java class, as well as for declaring UI-specific attributes for existing Java classes (ie. if
* you prefer not to use annotations, or if you want to introduce additional 'virtual' properties).
*
* Note when using XmlInspector you should still try to avoid duplicating UI metadata
* that already exists in other parts of your application. For example, if you are also using
* PropertyTypeInspector in your CompositeInspector there is no need to
* duplicate the names and types of properties. Also, if you are using
* PropertyTypeInspector and XmlInspector together, please read the
* JavaDoc for restrictAgainstObject.
