I am the person (at least I think so), I'm developping the new classes
for handling vocabularies. It includes a document class, an expression
class, and classes for import/export.
These classes aim to be shared in LibKdeEdu, so that any app which
handles vocabularies can (and should) use them.
When they are finished, I plan to make at least KWordQuiz use them,
but maybe KVocTrain too.

As Peter and others, I think that the KVTML format is not flexible
enough. I think a future job will be to design a new version of the
format, with less XML attributes, which can handle images, sounds, a
variable number of traductions of one word in the same language (asked
in b.k.o)...
