Section 3.3.2:
"If a default value is declared, when an XML processor encounters
an omitted attribute, it is to behave as though the attribute
were present with the declared default value."
Section 2.9, Validity Constraint: Standalone Document Declaration:
"...attributes with default values, if elements to which
these attributes apply appear in the document without
specifications of values for these attributes,..."
If the XML processor always automatically produces such
attributes with their default values when they are missing,
how can the Validity Constraint ever be true?
Does the checking of this Validity Constraint occur before
the XML processor makes its correction?
