adobe flex; return xml via turbogears/django

[Sells, Fred]

please excuse slightly off-topic; cannot access turbogears mailing list at the moment.

There was an excellent video by James Ward that showed using turbogears to return json data to adoble's flex UI.  It simply used

@expose("JSON")
def xxxx():
	...
	return dict(x=1, ...)

Is there any equivalent for xml, such as
@expose("XML")
def ....
	return myElementTreeRoot

I need to have more attribute data (for a grid) than I can cleanly do in json and while pyamf might do the trick, It adds a layer of "magic code" that I cannot sell to my team.  Also with xml and json, I can do my UI design with the url pointing to a test data file, then build the backend to match.

any ideas?

thanks
