Description

Section 12.3.6
Says: If the element is in a sequence then it is a schema definition error if:

the sequence is not the content model of a complex type definition

Is this just theoretically to make implementations easier or is this restriction needed really? It seems like an arbitrary restriction that will make generating DFDL schemas from some data specifications harder.

Seems to me that whatever the sequence is, it has to be last within the nearest enclosing element. Not sure a greater restriction is helpful.
