[ptt-users] TM 5.1 RC 2: testgen4web output "is not well formed"?

Hello,
Boning up for next week's seminar, I went back to the responder at
    http://examples.pushtotest.com/responder/htmlresponder
and recorded a test using TestGen4Web. Then I had TG4W save the test as 
a file, example-tg4w.xml.
Then I started TM 5.1 (RC 2) and clicked the Open tool button, navigated 
to example-tg4w.xml, and opened it.
The unexpected behavior: I got a message box saying the file 
...\example-tg4w.xml "is not well formed."
After clicking OK, I got another message box asking if I wanted to open 
the file for editing.

Well, I thought the tg4w output was supposed to be (well-formed) XML, so 
I opened it in another XML editor (Oxygen) and ran the well-formedness 
check. Oxygen says it's well-formed. What gives?

Maybe TM means that it was expecting to open some other type of XML 
document, such as a test scenario, and that example-tg4w.xml is not a 
*valid* (as opposed to well-formed) instance of that document type?
That's the only explanation I can think of off the top of my head.
If so, it would be nice if
(a) the "Open" button had some indication that it meant "Open Test 
Scenario", either on the button label or on a tooltip; and
(b) the error message would say "is not a valid test scenario" instead 
of "is not well formed".

Or maybe it means something else entirely?

I'll attach the example-tg4w.xml file here.
By the way I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.12.

Regards,
Lars
