this is the tactic I usually take, as I am willing to use an imperfect
and unwieldy grammar-based language if I can augment it with a quick
and handy contextual constraints language (for want of a better term)
but in the outlined case there is no way that xml schema would provide
anything to matching the requirementsv (that I or any of the X;ML
Schema conversant people I work with can see).
