There isn't a downloader in the XML format right now. I just wrote a JSON version. Are you performing JSON to XML conversion on your end somehow?
But the XML version could easily be added, if desired. Let me know if you need it. (*)
(*) Or you could also send a pull request if you actually want to write a little JavaScript yourself, haha. This programming language is not my forte, but the script is simple enough, anyway...
My workflow was, and still will be, to extract highlights and notes, then run the output through a regex script to grab the text and the location, factoring out extraneous floatsum. I prepend a ">" to each text block so it is marked as a quote for refactoring.

I've enjoyed your content and interaction here in the forum; I'd be happy to adapt this to your use case, if the tool can help in your workflow.
