	This is the basis of our misunderstanding.

	POV script is good for what it is.

	But it can't be all things to all people.
	So don't get so upset about proposing an
	alternative.  There are ways of doing this
	without having to support two formats -
	it means having an API for POV.

	No, it doesn't.  It just means that you can only
	handle XML data with XML tools.  POV script gets
	ignored, but preserved - no problem.
