I had been editing the files with LDCad open (the easier to see what parts I wanted to exclude from a particular group), and being confused when I found the changes had no effect - because the file was overwritten when I closed LDCad.
The <items> section is used as a cache.
But on modern hardware it's hardly any advantage over just populating the bin in realtime on each start up. Even more so because checking all the timestamps for changes etc takes about the same time
