So is it, or is it not, a validity error to write:

<!ATTLIST myelement myattribute1 (value1|value2) "value3">

Does "value3" satisfy the lexical constraints for this attribute? And where
in the spec do I go to find out?

(I've just read Richard Tobin's response, which at least confirms my view
that the answer isn't obvious...)
