You did get heard.  And this is a good thing that we might support for
other components.

But how do you address standard naming schemes with the XML file
format, for things like "Summary/Author" in a way that is consistent
across applications.  How can we standarize this?

How can I quickly scan information?  How can I pull an image from
another XML file without having to load the entire XML file into
memory?

(Consider embedding an image which is inside a document into a
spreadsheet without activating the document component)
