construct?

The elements in the XML syntax fall into the following groups:

- patterns: element, attribute, empty, notAllowed, data, value, text, list, 
mixed, oneOrMore, zeroOrMore, optional, group, choice, interleave, ref, 
parentRef, grammar, externalRef

- name classes: choice, name, anyName, nsName

- components: define, start, div, include

- param

- except

The compact syntax spec uses component to mean "thing that can occur in a 
grammar", i.e. define, start, div, include.

See above. Look at the EBNF in the compact syntax or RELAX NG specs. The 
definition of pattern gives you the constructs that count as patterns.
