> do Unexpanded Entity Reference Information Items break up text nodes?

As far as XPath is concerned, there are no unexpanded entity
references.  As it says in 5.2, entity references are expanded.
It doesn't (as far as I can see) address the question of undefined
entities - presumably they are just intended to be not allowed.

Maybe we should add something to the Infoset conformance section
requiring specs using the Infoset to say whether they allow Unexpanded
Entity Reference items.
