Facebook News (hack): XML Sitemaps & FBML? New Facebook Vulnerability?

In a news from developers.facebook.com from March 12, 2008 and according to Alex Moskalyuk:

“Starting today, you can serve XML sitemaps off apps.facebook.com domain, and notify search engines about changes on your pages. Naturally, this works better for pages that display content without requiring logins.”

This is indeed a really nice news for apps developers… But this implies that:

“Facebook will serve any file with “.xml.gz” extension without interpreting it through FBML parser.”

Might this “non-interpretation” be dangerous in any kind of way? A new vulnerability in Facebook?

The answer needs some kind of reflexion or…
