The one I'm currently working on is
"manual" C++, but I see no reason
not to use an parser-generator. Question: Can a parser-generator ensure
the output (no matter the input) is valid XML? Can it remove potential
harmful HTML tags?
Looks like you mis-understood what a parser generator does.
Based on a formal grammar, parser generator (like yacc or bison)
generates parser for this grammar. It does nothing else. It's up to
you to write code/actions for grammar parts (in this outputting XML
text).
So the answer is: no.
