Seems very hard to seek in XML? And how would you update it in place? Also seems like it would be massive?

Well, we're not storing pixels in xml, but now we've got two xml files, one with author data, one descibing the image and a folder tree containing various kinds of binary data, all in a zip file. And yes, updating in place is a bother.
