I'm abusing the word constraint there, sorry.

What I mean is should our template TEI files for oXygen have both 
the <?xml-model?> for the relaxng and (pointing to the same file) 
the <?xml-model?> for the schematron?

If you just have the relaxng <?xml-model?> you don't get the 
schematron constraints.  The doc of the document must have both:
<?xml-model 
href="http://www.tei-c.org/release/xml/tei/custom/schema/relaxng/tei_all.rng" 
schematypens="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"?>
<?xml-model 
href="http://www.tei-c.org/release/xml/tei/custom/schema/relaxng/tei_all.rng" 
type="application/xml" 
schematypens="http://purl.oclc.org/dsdl/schematron"?>

My question is whether that should be the default.  Currently we 
only provide:

<?xml-model 
href="http://www.tei-c.org/release/xml/tei/custom/schema/relaxng/tei_all.rng" 
schematypens="http://relaxng.org/ns/structure/1.0"?>

This will affect users who, for example, have <lg> without a 
single <l> in it which is valid under the relaxng but not if you 
add the schematron.

Is that clearer?
