Another feature in oXygen is the Model pane that displays the content model for an element based on the cursor being inside the element. It is a little faster than the opening triangular brace and doesn't insert content into the file. Many other editors have similar features.

I don't know of such a query tool, but you can use an RNG schema-aware XML editor to
see what child elements are available for a given parent. I just open a DocBook 5.0
document with Oxygen, configured to associate the DocBook namespace with the DocBook
5.0 RNG schema. When inside an element, when I type "<" it prompts me for a child
element, listing only those that are valid in that context. Other XML editors have a
similar feature.
I'll add an item to the next DocBook Technical Committee agenda to discuss maintaining
accessible reference documentation for each version.

Missed that before, I see that in the preface now, thanks.
I should have used the docs that came with the distribution. Now that I look there
though I don't see the reference.
Where can I find the frozen doc that matches the distribution for 5.0?
Or failing that, is there a tool to query the schema for legal child elements given a
parent?
something like this:
somefunc('varname','inlineequation')# returns False
somefunc('varname','inlinemediaobject')# returns True
thanks,
