I agree that it's not a subset of XForms 1.0, but the first claim is
pure FUD. Web Forms 2.0 happened precisely because some people didn't
like XForms 1.0 and wanted to replace it with something they liked
better. I'm not saying they're wrong, or that their spec is worse, but
don't kid yourself about what's going on here.
