The latter. There is no restriction on how objects handle their internal
states; XML comes into play when they voluntarily describe (a subset of)
their public interface. This description is then used to export state in
some desirable format -- such as XML -- and can also be transformed into
e.g. a DTD.
The obvious advantage of XML is the profusion of brilliant XML authoring
applications that admittedly seem conspicously absent at present but are
surely -just- around the corner...? :-)
The XML editors I've seen mostly seem to be either enhanced text editors,
tree-structure editors, or very high-caliber documentation software from
the SGML camp that's been tweaked to handle XML. None of these categories
interest me much. I want on-the-fly, generic GUI generation -- are there
any such efforts underway that people know of? I have not tried XMetal...

I expect they'll be mutating all the way up 'til release, especially so
since they are twice derived descriptions rather than primal definitions.
