I may want to see a minor change to the above.  I'm trying to think if it
would make better sense to list the flags in the following fashion:


  33600
  whatever
  whatever
  whatever
  V32B
  V42B
  [misc_flags_here_too_to_validate]


This way whatever program is reading the XML nodelist knows to just
concatenate all fields that have the same tag names (ie.
compression="V32B,V42B")  ... What do you think of that?
