In a world where XML
allows multiple roots, I’m curious whether each root would potentially allow a
different encoding? Would multiple prologs be allowed?
We're talking here about
multiple elements underneath a single document node, not about multiple XML
documents held in a single file. (Multiple documents in a single file requires
no change to the specification, since the word "file" is not
mentioned except by way of examples in the XML rec: a parser starts
with a sequence of octets, and where it gets them from is outside the scope of
the spec.)
