[Bug 4602] NOTATION and enumeration

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=4602

I like the simplicity of the proposal in comment #6.

I find it a little strange to mention information items in this constraint (and
put the general rule in parenthesis).

Also when a type is derived from NOTATION by specifying an enumeration, we
still need to use NOTATION to validate the literal for the enumeration.

I would recast the rule as

"It is an ˇerrorˇ for NOTATION to be used directly to validate a literal in
Datatype Valid (§4.1.4), unless the literal came from the value attribute of an
<enumeration> specified on a type derived by restriction from NOTATION. Only
datatypes that are derived from NOTATION by specifying a value for
ˇenumerationˇ can be used to validate other literals."

Tried to find a simpler way to say the "unless" part. Suggestions welcome.
