           Summary: fix consistency of language for schematron constraints
           Product: SML

LC Draft section 6.3.2 Schema Validity Rules, bullet 2 says "if B has
Schematron constraints defined on it then they are automatically copied to D
and unioned with the Schematron constraints defined on D."  
these usages of "Schematron constraints defined on" 
are in contrast to the bullets surrounding it, indeed w/ the rest of the
subsection, that carefully uses the well-defined {rules} notation.

The existing text would appear to introduce the possibility that Schematron
constraints might be attached to schema components other than via the
SML-defined {rules} schema component property, which I do not think was our
intent.

This bullet seems to be fully redundant with 6.3.1 bullet 3.a, so it might be a
simple matter of removing 6.3.2 bullet 2 entirely.
