Thank you for your reply.

I found RELAX NG Compact Syntax schema for Schematron at

https://github.com/Schematron/schema

The nXML mode of Emacs provides schema-sensitive editing using RELAX NG
Compact Syntax.  So, it should be possible to use the above in Emacs,
and get completion for allowed element names, etc.

Yes, I did.  Finally, I found some clear advice in Erik Ray's `Learning
XML', 2nd ed.  He quotes Jeni Tennison as saying, "The real win with
Schematron is when you use it in tandem with another schema language,
particularly W3C XML Schema.  There is no way that you should use it for
a standalone schema, but to test co-occurrence constraints once the
initial validation is done with W3C XML Schema or RELAX NG, it's a
godsend."

So, that's what I've decided to do: write a simple schema in RELAX NG
Compact Syntax, and embed Schematron rules in it to enforce extra
constraints.

Thanks again for your advice.

Raghu.
