Actually for pre-WebSGML,the best choice is usually to make the tokens
more descriptive:

<!ATTLIST foo
defaultEventSet (defaultEventSet|noDefaultEventSet) "noDefaultEventSet"
unicast (unicast|noUnicast) "noUnicast">

AElfred does not report all required errors, but even if it did, it
could either ignore this one or simply issue a warning: since
interoperability constraints are non-binding recommendations.

All the best,

David
