--- Comment #1 from Mika Boström <bostik.fdo at bostik.iki.fi> ---
Just adding my 0.02€ as discussed on IRC.

When we developed a custom extension for a client, our *own* developers
requested that I include all the XML files in our packages, both stock and the
ones we had written, for general convenience.

Sure - the raw protocol descriptions are technically useless for C/C++ code
where the bindings are known at build time, and code is always built against
generated headers. But I can see the case for something higher-level where the
core protocol is implemented statically and the server extensions are
discovered at runtime.
