This is not a suitable interface for our users. We need something easier, or something automatic. And any work in this direction would probably be bolting onto the sugar activity updater, making it really confusing with 2 backends or something, and sort-of calls out for a rethink of the system as a whole.

I love these ideas. I would even go as far as to remove .xo support altogether as there are a number of flaws in that format now that sugar is hugely increasing in scope.
