Yes it'd be. I actually needed it in last week and tried to implement. I didn't have a memo field so I didn't bother with it. During my tests routine got very slow, I narrowed it down to XMLUpdateGram(). For around 6K records it was taking around 71 secs on my system ! I wrote a routine myself and now it runs in 1.5 secs (and I still utilized CursorToXML() modifying a bit).
