RE: using substitutionGroup members in complexType derviation by restriction ?

You first need to apply:

   2.1 Any top-level element declaration particle (in R or B)
   which is the {substitution group affiliation} of one or more
   other element declarations and whose *substitution group*
   contains at least one element declaration other than itself
   is treated as if it were a choice group whose {min occurs}
   and {max occurs} are those of the particle, and whose
   {particles} consists of one particle with {min occurs} and
   {max occurs} of 1 for each of the declarations in its
   *substitution group*. 

So for checking restriction, the complexType X is treated as:

   <xs:sequence>
      <xs:choice>
         <xs:element ref="A"/>
         <xs:element ref="B"/>
      </xs:choice>
   </xs:sequence>

is there an non-ambiguous rule in the spec which allows the use of
substitutionGroup members instead of the original element in the derived
type ?
...
any hint most wellcome!
