Description

As part of a recent SPRUCE hackathon (http://wiki.opf-labs.org/display/SPR/Home) we added XML output to preflight. It would be good if preflight was able to offer this sort of output by default. Example outputs from our code are here: https://github.com/petecliff/pdfeh/tree/master/sample_preflight_outputs Our XML output code is here: https://github.com/willp-bl/preflight-app-mod You might want to implement it your own way?

As an aside; we have a format corpus of test files here: https://github.com/openplanets/format-corpus Use of the files and contributions are encouraged!

Thanks
