I believe that's correct.

Are you sure? My understanding is that:
<xs:complexType/>
is short for
<xs:complexType>
<xs:complexContent>
<xs:restriction base="xs:anyType">
</xs:restriction>
</xs:complexContent>
</xs:complexType>
which allows neither attributes, child elements not child text nodes, and
thus that
<xs:complexType mixed="true"/>
allows just child text nodes and hence is equivalent to
<text/>
in RELAX NG. I may be wrong -- I often find I misunderstand XSD -- but both
MSXML and XSV seem to agree with me (the version of MSV I tried doesn't
though).

Only if somebody reports them.
