I thought this information might be useful:
As per my reading of the XML standard, in order to place a <?xml=...> tag
at the beginning of the document, the only requirement is that the
document be well-formed (parse correctly). As far as I can tell (based on
two over-the-web xml parsers) the documents that Abiword produces fit this
criteria. Therefore, if this is true in general, we could add the above
tag to our documents. However, in order to be VALID XML, we would have to
include a DTD (or at least a link to one). As this seems unlikely for
the short term, I think we should settle for keeping our XML well-formed.
However, it would be bad if it stopped being well-formed, even if we had
no <?xml?> tag.
