do you _have_ to express this constraint at the schema level?
There are always some things a schema (even a relax ng one) can't catch
and have to be caught in the application. If changing the xml format is
inconvenient just schema type it as
(A|B|C|D|E)*
so at least the schema checks that the set of child elements is
plausible, and defer the cardinality checks to whatever application is
handling the schema validated input.
