A validating parser cannot unambiguously determine whether any occurrence of the referenced element satisfies the explicit reference, or the wild-card <xs:any> token. Thus, strict validation of the schema fails.
How come?
Order of elements (unlike attributes) is not arbitrary in XML, so how come that validators cannot determine this. There should be a standard way to check for presence of a number of allowed modules before the wild card starts applying.
If xsd cannot do this, we MUST supply a schema-like mechanism for automatically checking this..
Yves suggested Schematron or NVDL, maybe relax ng?
