The contents of recordData is a sequence of XML nodes which are
validatable against the schema given in recordSchema.  Normally the length
of the sequence will be 1 and the single tag will be the top level element
for the schema.  The only time when there will be more than one tag inside
recordData is when an XPath that matches multiple nodes has been
requested.

Metadata about the record that cannot be contained within the recordSchema
can be returned, if requested, in extraRecordData.
