No. I look at SVG, ODF text, ODF spreadsheet, etc as things with completely different user interfaces. And likewise, the merge _helper_, the very thing the user will get to see, must have different user interfaces. And I see much more potential for this project to fail in those different user interfaces than something as _trivial_ (in relation) as XML merging.
