I stand corrected.  I guess I should have looked at the source before 
assuming it would take a lot of changes.

It's also good to know that you get more data from the internal 
grabber.  Does that mean that some of the DD data doesn't make it into 
the XMLTV output or that mythfilldatabase's XMLTV parser doesn't use all 
of the XMLTV data?
