  Hmmm... Some reasons XForms is better:

  
  1) XUL is designed with a GUI in mind, not so for XForms. XForms simply models user interactions.

  
  2) XUL is a mozilla thing. Standard bodies are superior because corporations that produce software for sale or for their own will build software based on specifications of Standard Bodies... W3C, IETF, etc.

  
  3) IMHO, much more software engineering forethought has gone into XForms. The binding process, instance data, etc. is really very well designed and will withstand the test of time (if XForms becomes pervasive which is more dependent on economic factors than anything else... )
