The spec currently says: "XML documents may contain highly-structured data
(numbers, dates), unstructured data (untagged free-flowing text), and
semi-structured data (text with embedded tags)."

Not aligned with standard terminology where semi-structured data is not
including ordered, mix markup data.... I propose to reword: 

"XML documents may contain highly-structured data (fixed schemas, known types
such as numbers, dates), semi-structured data (flexible schemas and types),
markup data (text with embedded tags), and unstructured data (untagged
free-flowing text)."
