Beside the fact that this is a problem of browsers (which won't help you 
much, as you have to deal with this somehow, blaming browsers alone 
isn't solving problems I'm just too aware of), I wonder: which XML 
framework _does_ preserve such tags?

I can't imagine a way of doing so as a DOM node is a DOM node. I could 
only create a custom renderer for HTML to circumvene that specific 
pitfall - but then, you could also create a post-rendering filter 
regex-based that expands the script-tags
