Just an observation that this means that the result of the parse doesn't map well to the XDM or infoset models and so wouldn't work with xpath or other XML technologies. (That doesn't necessarily mean that this choice is wrong, as there could be a later mapping to XDM fixing up illegal names, just flagging this).) * doctype internal subset parsing still takes up a depressingly large part of the grammar, it would be nice if some of that could be lost (which would have some cost in compatibility with xml) especially in light of the first item above:-) David
