I think the idea is great, but I'm thinking the fileformat should be=20
stabilized before I'm willing to commit to this.

=46rom looking at the example only I note that
* I have a hard time fitting my KDE app stuff onto the config file (only=20
judging the example, I didn't really understand the xsd).
I suggest having a look at how the various apps use KStandardDirs.  I expec=
t=20
at least some tags for config and resource dirs.

* Spellcheck the xsd :)  existanceTestFile should probably be=20
existenceTestFile.

* I suggest having a <dir> tag instead of a <file>*</file> which IMO is jus=
t=20
confusing.
Take a look at the (java) ant stuff here for inspiration. See the attribute=
s=20
in the table on http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/javac.html
Includes and excludes are useful. The srcdir instead of <file> makes a lot=
=20
more sense to me too.
Something like;
  <dir>
    <kde-config/>
  </dir>
  <includes>kwordrc, kofficerc</includes>

or

  <dir>
    <kde-data/>kmail
  </dir>
  <excludes>lock, .*.index.*</excludes>

(not apparent in the examples is that you should be able to use both exclud=
es=20
and includes at the same time)

When the fileformat stabilizes I think it becomes a lot more useful to get=
=20
application-authors to write tickets for your backup app (which I really=20
think is filling a very useful niche!)

Cheers!
