It may be good to start out by separating
the notions of subset (a proper subset of U{XML})
and profile (a cross-product of subsets of U{XML}).
I think this a better direction than
a new version of XML which is in effect,
a subset of the original XML which is
a subset of SGML. Clean references.

We have however taken up a new TAG issue named "XmlProfiles" to address
the general issue here; the XML family of recommendations has little in
the way of profiling/subsetting mechanisms, and yet we observe
persistent requirements from the community (e.g. XMLP in this case) to
do profiling and subsetting, in many cases for reasons that seem good.
