You ask two questions: "Can the application fold embedded chunks in for styling processes." I would answer: "of course." The application can do whatever it wants. Now if the application claims to render documents according to XSL, then it must do what XSL requires of hyperdocuments (documents linked together by XLL(XML-LINK)). This has not yet been defined. "Can the application fold embedded chunks in for valiation processes." Again, the answer is "of course." The application can do whatever it wants. *BUT* the definition of validation in the XML specification is NOT defined for hyperdocuments. So you must figure out what validation means for hyperdocuments in your application. The definition in the XML spec. is not relevant for hyperdocuments.
