Greg, Very interesting question, there is actually working being done within Standards Australia to determine how to represent archetyped content in HL7 V2. This work is not yet complete, but your suggestion is one of the options except the [at0000] is not required as all archetype root nodes have this node ID. The code system (3rd component of CE) is the Archetype ID.
