Since bug 4807 has been marked duplicate of this bug, I am copying below the
proposal I had added to that bug. I have switched points #1 & #2 for clarifying
the emphasis on pt #1.

-----
I propose that we should remove this section entirely rather than spending time
fixing/clarifying it. There are a couple of reasons: 

1.       It is strange that the SML spec even attempts to define this. This
should either be implementation dependent or should be the responsibility of
the schematron spec to define. 

2.       Support for structured xml output is optional. It will be more
productive to spend our time on core (non-optional) SML issues. If we have lot
of time left after fixing all core issues, we can discuss whether to  bring
this back.
