           Summary: Error describing [element declaration] and [type
                    definition]
           Product: XML Schema
           Version: 1.0 only

The [element declaration] and [type definition]
properties on elements are described as applying 
whenever an element is valid against an element
declaration / type definition.

On the face of it, the text implies that every
element must be validated against every element
declaration and type definition in the schema.

The text should say that the [element declation]
is present if the element is valid against its
context-determined declaration, and that the
value of the property is that context-determined declaration.
And so similarly for [type definition], with the 
added possibility of the value having been specified
in xsi:type.
