A validator that claims to support a datatype library is NOT required to detect 
incorrect type names, incorrect parameter names and values, and incorrect values 
(i.e., the content of <value>) in that datatype library.  This is my understanding 
of the RELAX NG spec and "Guidelines for using W3C XML Schema Datatypes with RELAX NG".
