Is this completely true? One of the annoying problems that I run into
when writing valid XML is that the Jade with Norms DSSSL stylesheets
produces a trailing ">" when making XREF's with the <xref linkend="x1"/>
syntax. Only if I omitt the "/" at the end (<xref linkend="x1">) I get
the right result. But having no end tag is not valid xml, right?
