Knowing [xml] that "Algorithms exist which allow many but not all non-deterministic content models to be reduced automatically to equivalent deterministic models; see Brüggemann-Klein 1991 [Brüggemann-Klein]." Are you aware of W3C XML Schema authoring tools which would use (or plan to use) one of these algorithms to propose deterministic alternatives -strictly equivalent or only approaching- when a schema author creates a non-deterministic content model? IMHO, such a feature would be very helpful.
