While we're on this topic, are there any industry wide attempts to
develop an XML schema for component data sheets?

Theoretically, this would make putting component data into databases,
making it easily searchable on various parameters, etc.

In practice, it would make for some interesting fights between various
vendors and other interested parties which could provide us all with
months of entertainment.
