The benefit of an XML is that it can be parsed by a large number of XML
parsers, and transformed into whatever other format is desired.  If some
enterprising soul wished, they could create an XML parser that could
output the file in IIF (if the specification were known), or whatever
other file format were needed...This could server as a stopgap measure
until integrated export facilities were created...

Question is, does anyone have the time for this?
