No, that's some language you're defining that is derived from XML, but not 
XML itself.  I have no idea what the semantics of Include/@idref are.

Sorry to be pedantic, but ... no, actually, I'm not sorry. :)  After all, 
if I said that SOAP 1.1 encoding rules tried to address the many of these 
issues and claimed that this was SOAP addressing an XML issue, folks would 
be up in arms. :)
