This issue was originally reported by Asir Vedamuthu / XML Schema WG.

This was originally R-156
(http://www.w3.org/2001/05/xmlschema-rec-comments.html#pfiMixedSimple).

Consider:

<complexType name="something" mixed="true">
	<simpleContent>
		<restriction base="string">
		</restriction>
	</simpleContent>
</complexType>

This is a unique combination, a complex type with simple content and
mixed content type. I believe that this combination is valid per XML
Schema 1.0 REC.

Personally, I believe that this combination is invalid and hope this
will be ruled out explicitly.

The WG discussed this issue at the Sept. 13 telecon, and agreed to add
a "warning" about this now (2nd edition), with the intent that
constraints will be added to 1.1.
