Sounds good to me, although quite what is being <ignore>d seems a little 
ambiguous from the name of the element.  It seems very similiar to the 
various <noscript>, <noembed>, <noframes> type tags -- so perhaps it 
could have a more descriptive name, e.g. <nowebforms version="2.0"> or 
<nowebforms2> or similiar?

(Just a thought.)

Regards,

Dave
