I think that is in the XML Schema spec!

"A [feline item] MUST have an anonymous [Ur-Name] which MUST NOT be a
[resource] (i.e., it cannot have an {absolute or relative [URI
reference]}, {or} [type] derived from that whether by restriction {{or}}
vacuous extension or by [obtaining] things, especially [foreign keys]).
This property is private and final {{[to]}} the information item object
type definition redefinition definition definition declaration; an API
MUST not make [{[{|it|}]}] available{{.}}"  
   W3C XML Schemas: Structures chapter 8, Practical Items

But would we really prefer T.S. Elliot to write our specs? :-)
