In Appendix E, the holy script says:
<quote>
[...] it is required that content models in element type declarations be
deterministic. This requirement is for compatibility with SGML (which calls
deterministic content models "unambiguous"); [...]
</quote>
This wording makes me wonder if there is any case where a non-deterministic
content model would acctually be useful? That is, is the restriction a
compromise, or can a non-deterministic content model always be simplified
(like many algebraic expressions) to something shorter with the same meaning?
