An example:
ELEMENTs must be declared for ATTLIST in validatable documents. So is the
following legal in this case:
<!ATTLIST FOO BAR CDATA #REQUIRED>
<!ELEMENT FOO ANY>
In a WF document this might have a different effect - the ATTLIST
declaration is WF and implicitly creates an ELEMENT declaration. When this
ELEMENT is declared, is it then an error?
Of course its normal and natural to predeclare things before their use but
it's not necessary in some languages.
