The description of the VC "Element Valid" (XML 1.0, 2nd ed., § 3) is missing instructions, when comments, PIs or CDATA-sections are allowed. E.g. § 2.5 states: "Comments may appear anywhere in a document outside other markup", but the VC mentions the following condition: "1. The declaration matches EMPTY and the element has no content." So is <foo><!--comment--></foo> valid, if 'foo' is declared EMPTY? -- Similar problems arise with paragraph 2 and 3 of the VC. So is it true, that comments, PIs and CDATA-sections are only allowed in elements declared ANY? If that is the case, it would be good to mention this in the text of the VC and to adjust the above quoted text of § 2.5 as well as § 2.7: "CDATA sections may occur anywhere character data may occur".
