I don't think we should do that, and stick to the default properties files that felix generates. they are easy to understand and are modular. for example, adding a new bundle + config can be provisioned with a zip-file. but if you have 1 XML, you need to merge configs. (that, and beside the fact, that I dislike XML very much).
