Hello,

those changes all look good. I hope you will find the time to commit them,
so that we all can get them. At the first glance, there is no dupplicate
work with Arnaud's last changes, which is a good news :)


I also think that flexml is too neat to die slowly the way it used to do,
and I'm very happy to see that we are one more around flexml.


Thanks for your time,
