My experience (from a few years back) was that IE was a bit tricky because of the lack of DOM level 2 methods (so that handling namespaces properly required MS-specific methods), and the lack of good XPath support in the other UAs. Both issues can be worked-around by using a library that works around them, as you say. I wouldn't make a protocol format decision depend on that; for instance, when using JSON instead, you'll need libraries as well (unless you use "eval" :-).
