Ah, yes, a very important point.  Any additional XMLTV parsing support 
in MythTV needs to be compliant with the XMLTV standards.  So if there's 
something you want MythTV to support, you'll need to ensure XMLTV 
already supports it or will have to work with XMLTV to add support for 
it.  (Some of the Schedules Direct information will require new support 
in XMLTV, so it should be possible to add support for something new to 
XMLTV.)
