        IMO that's a band-aid approach. The whole datanav/appwiz design  
needs to be overhauled, similar to what we did when we moved from  
field specs to py code. And I don't recommend doing that until the  
Class Designer and related programs are mature enough to handle  
anything we can throw at it. I've spent the last few days trying to  
get the DesignerXMLConverter class to be able to handle individual  
page classes and making them work in a pageframe transparently at  
both design time and run time. This and a mess of other such issues  
need to be addressed and solved before we start dicking around with  
integrating datanav and cdxml.
