Yes, but as validation and typing are tightly bound in terms of algorithm,
why not perform them both in the same path, for the sheer sake of efficiency
? When validating, you collect a lot of useful data (you know what XSDL
types you are matching against elements), so why no keep this information in
a PSVI to give it to the next layer ?
