What does "validate" mean for a CDS file ?

For XML it obviously/intuitively means "is a valid XML representation of a
CDS file" but for a CDS file, if you dumped it from a client data set in the
first place, what additional validation would be needed to ensure that it is
a CDS file ?

Hey Cam, for space size reasons, we're using the CDS format not the XML
format as the files get pretty large.
