I've exported to XML and edited the generated file by hand as a quick way to 
successfully import a site to another Zope instance, when I was getting 
import errors when using the .zexp. I'm not sure I'd be able to do that with 
the .zexp file.

But then again, it was about the only time I really found a use for the XML 
export/import. Still, it was nice to have to have the possibility at the 
time.
