Comment(by pde):

 Implementation hint for people interested in working on this:

 Merge the <rulesetlibrary> related portions of
 [https://gitweb.torproject.org/https-
 everywhere.git/blob/master:/src/chrome/content/code/HTTPSRules.js Firefox
 version's XML parser] over to the [https://gitweb.torproject.org/https-
 everywhere.git/blob/3e0d3e4dbb258c035e4f9214f341726f730a82d9:/chromium/rules.js
 Chromium XML parser], from which it is currently lacking.
