Not at all. I simply want to fetch the array as such.

Now:

TER transforms extension list into XML
TER sends XML (as zipped file)
Client parses XML into array (after unzipping)

Future:

TER transforms extsion list into array
TER sends serialized array (as zipped file)
Client unserializes array (after unzipping)

No need to handle, parse or do anything client-wise. Just forget about the 
XML. It's unnecessary overhead.
