Isn't the distinction here really between user-created 'files' and 'state data'?
I would think that things like settings on a word processor
(what flavour paperclip do you want, how obtrusive do you want spellchecking 
to be) could be in a non-documented format, but the product (i.e. the 
WP document) should be openly documented.

Just my 2p
