This looks weirdly like DTD/instance built into the XML instance.
So, XML then defines an application inside the instance?

I understand it because this is how IADS and IDE/AS did links 
originally.  However, it created interoperability problems 
and does to this day.  What is the difference between this 
and a tag bag of empty elements included at the top of a DTD?
