Hi Art, I am not aware of anyone doing this as part of their workflow. I do subscribe to the theory, however, that the active word in "round tripping XML" is "trip." Preserving, adding, removing, re-adding, ignoring "special" stuff each application might require (think processing instructions) can be challenging. Forget about the complexity of the ... forgive me, I forget the exact Frame term ... "edit rules" (the structure map used during import/export or open/close or something along those lines).
Maybe if your customer is using extremely small, simple chunks the effort could be worth it. But if that were so, you probably wouldn't prefer to use Frame if possible (making all sorts of wild assumptions about what you're trying to do).
