The HTML DTD specifies this constraint with an exclusion exception
(a feature that was left out of XML):
<!ELEMENT FORM - - %body.content -(FORM) +(INPUT|SELECT|TEXTAREA)>
TREX can also express it concisely with a combination of CONCUR
and NOTALLOWED. CONCUR was left out of RELAX-NG, but it can also
express this constraint, as can RELAX and any other schema language
based on tree-regular grammars.
