Please look at my comments on your DTD example below

I think we are in the same page here, 
There will be a unique identifier for the DTD, and a unique identifier for every 
component from A-E. 
We will use the DTD unique identifier to group all related submission , i.e 
(A,B) with (C-E)
When you retrieve the DTD , it will includes A-E. 
You can also retrieve each component separately.
