If you want to make an XSD (XML Schema) definition you can create an "any"
schema element to allow anything within an element. That is how you can
allow arbitrary xml within the schema definition.

I'm pretty sure you can do something very similar in a DTD.

There isn't a DTD, but there is a reason for that.  Much of the
configuration DOM is interpreted arbitrarily by optional pluggable modules
(instances of ViewFactory, TransformFactory, etc).  You could create a
DTD/XSD which would validate all the known modules, but it would break as
soon as someone added a custom module with different configuration.

All the common elements (that the Maverick core understands) are documented
in the manual, but there comes a point in the XML tree where even the manual
has to say "see the javadocs for the particular view/transform/etc factory
you are using".

With a DTD, can you define at point in the tree and say "stop validating
here"?

Is there a DTD for maverick.xml?

I'm looking for an existing DTD for maverick.xml config file.
Where can I find one?

If there is no DTD I'll build one.
