Is this the right link? It seems to be a zip file containing a zip file
containing XML files and a schema, along with an HTML file describing the
package and some files in a proprietary format I can't read. Is there an HTML
(or failing that, PDF) version somewhere?

I don't think that's a real concern. Historically people have had no problem
adding features to their languages and technologies before HTML APIs could
represent them. It seems unlikely that these features, if they are useful at
all, would only be useful in an HTML context.
