I this a full equivalent?

Wouldn't it match the following variablelist element, although it does not satisfy content-model(title?,varlistentry+)?

<variablelist>
  <title></title>
</variablelist>

AFAICS, a full equivalent would be even longer and even more complex to write.

I guess to be able to describe content models in a simple way, I might have to write content-model() in XSLT2 until implementers or the spec offer one (or an equivalent) to me ...

content-model() would accept a defined supersimple subset of DTD content model syntax, and return a boolean.
