> However, I have found that the XML Parsers generally do not

> relevant for validation, like document tags, annotation, and
> attribute groups are resolved into a list of attributes. The
> same thing with the Java binding APIs - information only
> relevant to the binding process is preserved, and everything
> else is ignored.
