XML partial validation.

Hi!

I am writing a text to XML parser that as to be easily extensible (via 
new text format plug-ins) and modifiable if the XML format used changes.

Since the text order does not match the XML document order I have to use 
a package that allows DOM-like handling of XML (elementtree for 
instance).

The XML DTD is still (and most likelly will be) in a state of evolution.

To make life much easier for future developers what I really needed was 
some package that implemented something like DOM level 3 XML partial 
validation.

There seems to be already something implemented in PyXML (at least the 
Validition-Err exception is there) but there is no documentation and I 
can not figure how to turn partial validation on.

Any advice?

Thank you very much.

Best regards
José Rui
