RSS support is blocking a few simplifications for some other improvements, and it additionally is very much untested and relies on old, abandoned libraries for XML parsing. Other technical factors influenced this decision (see github issue #191) but the primary motivation is developer time and knowledge to maintain this support. Frankly, there is none. Patches welcome.

I will leave this PR open and in a draft state for people to leave comments. But more and more I feel as if leaving RSS support in such a state is a bad idea.
