The big problem is that XML does not define part-wise validation. This is likely to come out of the schema work in the W3C. "The only solution we currently see is to be well formed and run without a DTD. We would really like to have a DTD so that we can take advantage of validation and authoring tools." As Eliot points out, you can also do this with architectural forms. I attribute this to the fact that they were designed in the 1990s instead of the 1980s (like the rest of SGML) and I further feel that part-wise validation should be part of any new schema language, including a revision of DTDs.
