I missed this -- I thought we wanted to do both directions (at least from a 
normalized DTD).

My reason for wanting this is so that a specialized parser can read an existing 
DTD and give me XSchema SAX events, which I can then build into a tree and 
explore.  In fact, I regard this as initially more important than the other 
direction since most people use DTDs, not XSchema.
