I'd argue that since we reference [1] it must merely match that XML BNF production which means that siblings are fine though the decrypted content might not be well-formed. This leads me to believe that we should add some text to 4.1.5.1 akin to: ( Note: If the /+plaintext encrypted is &xenc;Content which has sibling elements+/ or the EncryptedData element is used as the root element of a new document and its Type is 'content' the plaintext resulting from decryption may not be well-formed.)
