I know I have trouble understanding 3.6 and I expect others do. If an
element's complex type is not a named type, like nested declarations in XML
Schema and _all_ DTD (or RELAX NG) complex types, what path through this
guarantees that a) the actual complex type will be used to determine
validity of the content model and b) the proper simple types will be
assigned to attributes and elements?
