Yes.  This ASN.1 module defines a type "Text" that, when using EXTENDED-XER,
is encoded as an XML element <text> with unconstrained attributes and with
mixed content, containing an unconstrained number of the elements <b>, <i>,
<u> in any combination and order, each of them having the same properties as
the <text> element, and so on recursively.
