It looks weird but I think that this should validate. For example some
WYSIWYG editors save last cursor position in XML file by putting PI
there. People doesn't expect that placing cursor in a middle of number
will invalidate document.
It is also quite analogic to robust processing of elements with #PCDATA
content in standard DOM. You shouldn't read just first child of element,
but concatenate all childs which are text nodes and ignore any
interleaving comment or PI nodes.
