Roger is right.  NVDL allows you to validate XHTML+SVG documents
without rewriting XHTML schemas or introducing wildcards 
to them.

An appendix of NVDL shows a much more complicated example: XHTML +
XForms.  It is particularly difficult, since XHTML and XForms are 
intersperced.  See ISO/IEC FCD 19757-4, which is available at:
