Production 3 [1] prohibits "bare" '&' or '<':

[3] PseudoAttValue ::= ('"' ([^"<&] | CharRef | PredefEntityRef)* '"' |
                         "'" ([^'<&] | CharRef | PredefEntityRef)* "'")

This is a good match for Production 10 of the XML Rec [2]:

[10] AttValue ::= '"' ([^<&"] | Reference)* '"'
                  |  "'" ([^<&'] | Reference)* "'"
