   Construct a service network from an XML description. See docs/mlt-xml.txt.
+
+notes: >
+  If there is a service with a property "xml_retain=1" that is not the
+  producer, and if it also has an "id" property; then the extra service
+  is put into a properties list keyed on the id property. Then, that
+  properties list is placed as a property on the returned service with
+  the name "xml_retain". This lets an application retrieve additional
+  deserialized services that are not the lastmost producer or anywhere in
+  its graph.

-      An XML text file containing MLT XML
-      Since MLT XML files can be parameterised, the URL syntax is:
-      {file-name}[?{param-name}{'='|':'}{param-value}[&{param-name}{'='|':'}{param-value}...]]
-      A colon is allowed instead of an equal sign to pacify melt, who tokenises 
-      anything with an equal sign as a property setting. Also, when running 
-      melt from the shell, beware of the '?' and shell filename expansion. You 
-      can surround the URL with single quotations to prevent expansion. 
-      Finally, the loader will fail to match the filename when you use 
-      parameters, so preface the url with 'xml:' to force the loader to load 
-      with the xml service.
