I'm not sure if this is exactly what you are looking
for, but code to embed an arbitrary String into XML can be found in XMLWriter.java
in the method escape(String):

http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/org.eclipse.equinox/p2/bundles/org.eclipse.equinox.p2.repository/src/org/eclipse/equinox/internal/p2/persistence/XMLWriter.java?root=RT_Project&view=markup

A similar method is found in XMLMemento.DOMWriter#getEscaped(String),
which is part of a public API for storing arbitrary settings in XML:
