Oh, wait; I think I misread you. You're telling me the element names
must be different if you have different named definitions. Right?
Are you *sure* that's right? If it is, that's yet another way you're
letting the limitations of XSD drive your design decisions.
In RNG, this is perfectly valid (as it should be):
MODS-Name = element name { A, B, C }
MADS-Name = element name { X, Y, Z }
... and the namespace issue is entirely separate.
