Parsing XML with html unescape

[Deloo]

Hello,

in my use case, I need to parse a perfectly valid classic xml object using beautiful soup, except for the fact that the raw xml string contains html escapes.

For now, I managed to have bs properly parse the string with this line of code:

soup = bs.BeautifulSoup(html.unescape(xml), 'xml')

I wonder if there's a builtin way to achieve the same result without needing the html.unescape library function.

Thanks!
