Don't off-topic insults and trolling violate some rule somewhere?

Actually the host and programmers do a marvellous job!  They are:
http://www.vsym.com/ .  The company using the program hosts 25,000
sites like ours for FREE!  They are:  http://www.forministry.com/ .
We have nothing but good to say about these two companies and they
have a beautiful product.

The sitemap generator that Google recommended also did a good job:
www.ragesw.com/products/googlesitemap.html It is easy to use, and
works smoothly.

The problem is:
The site is restricted to a template-driven, web-based application.
That means that a sitemap (xtml) will be surrounded by html.  From
studying mine and others' posts in the fora on this, it seems that the
Google crawler does not yet recognize sitemaps embedded in html.  This
makes sense to me!

The Feature Request is:
Many other users here have the same problem.  Since we are hosted for
free, it might be a little rude for us to insist that the hosts re-
write the web-based application.  So, does Google have a way to
workaround embedding sitemaps (in xtml) in html?

There seems to be many people posting in the fora this and like
problems, so many people would be grateful and Google would look even
better than it already does -- if that's possible!
