Well, if we're having a list of valid remote-id type values in a file
somewhere, there's at least a vague argument that said file should be
XML. And since XML is supposedly compatible, said file should be
magically linked to the regular metadata DTD.

So we'd have something like:

<remote-id-values>
    <value name="sourceforge" format="string">
        The project's sourceforge project ID (e.g. 'hilite')
    </value>
    <value name="vim" format="integer">
        The script's vim.org script ID (e.g. '123')
    </value>
</remote-id-values>
