The licensing is OK now, buy the SDK and your all set. As for the XML 
stuff: why not enhance it yourself ;-)

I know the feeling. It has to do with needing "acceptable" things. In 
other words: your are not alone but will have to interoperate. Every now 
and then there is a chance for something isolated, and *then* you can 
use whatever you like.

E.g. I recently discovered that the SDK makes for a great install 
toolkit, as you can embed binaries, do GUIs and be cross-platform.
