The definition of "document" in SML is a well-formed XML document.  Even if we
ignore the fact that this definition uses "document" to define "document",
there is problem with criterion #1 for conforming SML Model:
Each document in the model MUST be a well-formed XML document.

Given the definition of "document", this criterion is a tautology.  (The text
even points back to the definition of "document"!

I suggest:
1. Defining "XML document" (leaving "document" undefined as "reference" is
undefined in "SML reference"
2. Replacing "document" with "XML document" as appropriate throughout the text
(and probably in SML-IF as well).
3. Change criterion #1 above to: The contents of the SML model MUST be XML
documents. (and point back to the definition of "XML document".
