FACT! 

However many of the MP solutions you have in your environment will not work so you should test each of them in your new environment where you load your application .xml extract. If you get an error navigate to the solution dashboard maintenance unit uninstall dashboard and uninstall the solution then install and follow the setup instructions.

FACT but also FICTION, FACT because the XML includes all of the XF Artifacts.  Fiction because the extract does not include the Ancillary Database Tables which most MarketPlace solutions need to support the respective Dashboards, i.e. People Planning or RCM.  Trick question Mr. Bielinksi.

Fact and fiction.  The application export creates a zip file that contains multiple XML files.  The zip file does not include FX Rates (metadata and data) which are extracted separately.
