Default EQUI_Animations.xml question

Okay, I don't want to touch this file. For as often as VI has patched it in the past, touching this file seems to signify doom (or at least an immediate UI fix). Those who have glanced through my UI will see that I shifted all the extra pictures and such into a file called EQUI_Kiriani.xml. That file holds all texture infos and such, so what I began to wonder is can I duplicate/supercede something in the EQUI_Animations file with something in the EQUI_Kiriani file?

Example:
I love the TKing Ranger animation. I love the Arrowhead cursor. Would I be able to re-define the class animation and the cursor in the EQUI_Kiriani.xml file as and leave the EQUI_Animations file untouched? Would thee new animation differences supercede the ones in the EQUI_Animations.xml file or cause a conflict and error out the UI?

Basicaly I am looking at a few things I think would be rather nifty to add to my UI, but really would like to keep it as patch proof as possible.

Actually, for the class animation one, you could define it in your Kiriani file, then in the inventory window you would need to change the tags so it goes looking for the info in the custom file instead of the default file. The cursor, otoh, is a pain. I don't know of any way to change it outside the animations file itself.
