Sorry not to reply to this sooner - I've fallen a bit behind on my PyXML 
mail.

Are you sure that's the correct behavior, for the 'ANY' content model?  I 
thought it meant that *any* element was valid - whether in the DTD (internal 
or external subset) or not.  If it is open-ended, then you obviously 
couldn't list all the possible elements.
