Sorry, I was too harsh with W3C XML Schema, there is a long and verbose
possibility that is to describe all the possibilities.

For instance (with 2 elements):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified">
  <xs:element name="ApplicationRequest">
    <xs:complexType>
      <xs:choice>
	<xs:sequence>
         <xs:element name="PermissionRequestSet" type="xs:string" />
         <xs:element name="LocationRequestSet" type="xs:string"/>
	</xs:sequence>
	<xs:sequence>
         <xs:element name="LocationRequestSet" type="xs:string"/>
         <xs:element name="PermissionRequestSet" type="xs:string" />
	</xs:sequence>
        <xs:element name="PermissionRequestSet" type="xs:string" />
        <xs:element name="LocationRequestSet" type="xs:string"/>
      </xs:choice>
    </xs:complexType>
  </xs:element>
</xs:schema>

I let you add the 5 remaining elements ;=) .
