See http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/1998/oct98/xmlcappr.htm where
it says: "Microsoft Office 2000, elevates HTML to a companion file format
and uses XML to store additional document information. By using XML in
this way, Office 2000 users can save documents as Web pages and then later
return these documents to their original Office state for editing."

So it's going to be a very limited use of XML. But at least it should
respect W3C standards.
