SGML allows you to combine several element type declarations into a
single declaration. The above declaration declares all the elements
contained in the parameter entities fontstyle and phrase to have the
same content model: (%inline;)*
Note that attribute list declarations can be combined just the same, as
in:
<!ATTLIST (%fontstyle;|%phrase;)
%attrs; -- %coreattrs, %i18n, %events --
