So nobody is using it?

Good day everyone,
I would love to know from the persons that are using the seleniumxml integration available in framework/testools their opinion
about this tools; specifically I am interested to know:
1) how you use it (settings, platform, browser) and if it is functional and
useful
2) the advantages you see in using this OFBiz specific integration rather than
using the standard Selenium tools
** do you find it easier to setup this component rather than the standard
Selenium?
** is it easier to write tests in the custom xml syntax provided by seleniumxml? or do you rather create them (as suggested by the
documentation in framework/testools) using one of the standard browser plugins available for Selenium and then convert to xml
using the custom script in OFBiz?
3) are you willing to contribute the tests you are using? are they generic
enough to be contributed back to the project?
I am asking #1 and #2 because I feel that we could replace all the custom code we have for seleniumxml (and required jar files)
with a good document that explains how to setup Selenium (no special integration is actually required for ofbiz) and then, instead
of writing/maintaining test scripts in this custom xml formal, we could simply accept and commit standard selenium test scripts
(in my opinion users will be facilitated to contribute them without the need to learn a new syntax); we could also provide an ant
script to run all of them. In this way we could also use a more recent version of Selenium (web driver).
Thanks for your time,
Jacopo
