Answer I got back is no, the I/O is not 5-Volt tolerant.

If they do not mention it, usually that means no.
Still, the number of vendors who offer not only 5V tolerant, but also 5V operating M0's is increasing rapidly, Infineon, Nuvoton, ABOV, Holtek, Fujitsu (etc), so that means more choice.
Notice how the USA vendors seem to be the slowest to grasp this ?

Are the parts 5-Volt tolerant? I have looked through the documentation
and didn't see it mentioned.

The phrase was in Atmel's promotional material. I have removed the phrase from the article.
Thank you, I needed a laugh today. This provided it:

I think he was just paraphrasing the article...
"According to Atmel this is makes the SAMD20 the highest performing
Cortex-M0+ to date."
microcontroller.com is in the business of getting people to read their
stuff, a bit of sensationalism helps in that department and makes the
advertisers happy.
