It is a good point:-) - perhaps that is what Microsoft wanted to do with XPS - maintain an open format, where multiple interested parties contribute and decide the features for the next generation document format. At least thats what I felt was a great start with using XML, ZIP, getting the hardware vendors excited... till Adobe cried foul and went to the EU.
I sure hope that XPS - will continue to be that fresh breath to stimulate another exciting option in the content management/ document management space. Am sure there will be room for XPS, although PDF dominates here, as has been for so many years.
