FWIW, this is what I do.  I haven't found a better way.

I have two versions of each [X|SG]ML file.  (I'm using XML extensions 
for forward compatibility...)  A .x file and a .xml file.  The .x file 
is the one I edit.  The .xml file is the one actually processed by 
Jade.  I have a generic rule in my Makefile that converts .x files into 
.xml files by running a Perl script on them that I wrote.  The Perl 
script handles stuff like what you mentioned.


Best,
