Not trough XAR tools
no, it's completely different format.
So what needs to be done here is a
converter which is a lot bigger than
a packager.
Which is what I indicated: you just use XFF filter (which already
exist) in input and XAR filter (which also already exist) as output.

It takes the following IMO:
* it works
* it does not break any retro compatibility (probably not enabled by
default for example)
Now Guillaume has a point. The issue you will quickly have as soon as
you start using this is that you HAVE to modify your XAR trough
filesystem because you can't edit it in XWiki and export it anymore.
That is if you don't provide any tool to export this kind of XAR
extension.
