Just out of curiosity, what would you use it for? Some elements and 
attributes aren't meaningful "regardless of structure".

Also, a couple of other people seem to understand what you want the 
output would look like (though they appear to have different 
understandings), but I don't. What is it, two lists, one titled 
"Elements" and the other "Attributes"? Are there attributes listed for 
each element? If so, and an element had an <anyAttribute>, would all the 
applicable attributes be listed, as well?
