Wow, that's pretty kickass.

# I love this.
xml = Hash.new {|h,k| h[k] = Hash.new(&h.default_proc)}
tags[1..-2].inject(xml) {|h, tag| h[tag]}

I actually did some of the same stuff last week, but a lot less generic 
and sophisticated.  I hadn't realized the potential of having a cool 
little library for this stuff.

You should release it - I would have used this for sure if I'd found it 
on github.
