Disable loading of output xml even for xunit file generation

[GoogleCodeExporter]

* I am using 3.0.0-SNAPSHOT on windows (It has fix for Issue 21)
* I have around 1500 test cases, and output xml thus created is around 100 MB 
in size.
* As robot takes lot of time and memory to parse that, I tried to use the fix 
given at 
http://code.google.com/p/robotframework-maven-plugin/issues/detail?id=21, to 
disable logs and reports. Intention was to disable report generation by maven 
plugin and then using 'rebot' to do it for me.
* However, although log and report html are not created now, but still I get 
the out of memory error, because robot tries to create Xunit file.
* Page 
http://robotframework.googlecode.com/hg/doc/userguide/RobotFrameworkUserGuide.ht
ml#xunit-compatible-result-file states, that this file is created *only* when 
"--xunit" is passed to robot. 
* Is there a way to disable generation of Xunit also completely, to make robot 
to stop processing 'ouput.xml' completely? 
* Also, is there a way to stop generation of log and report html files in 1.1.2 
version of maven plugin also? Or it can't be done at all because of Issue 21?

Update.

Memory consumption decreases after downloading latest trunk code and patching 
it to skip xunit (by creating a new bool property skipXunitGeneration. 
Attaching patched file.). Although test cases were still failing for me. 
- Could you please include an option to disable Xunit generation?
- Could you also please let us know when is a formal new release planned. 
(which may have the enhancement requested)
- And lastly, copying the same question again just to complete, we cannot 
really disable logs and reports in 1.1.2, right?

Thanks
