Good point.

Not a good point. I mean, I don't think one is allowed to:
<element>
  <interlave>
    <choice>
      <group/>
      <group/>
    <choice>
  </interleave>
</element>

simply because the choice groups may be defined by the value of an
attribute to the top parent element. Well, at least if I did it that way
I got an error from xmllint (and don't even get me started on it's error
reporting capabilities. For a long while I thought we have the worst
error reporting ever. Then I met xmllint).

So I'm fixing the first issue and pushing. Thanks.
