The insertion of the second one could indeed be automated, but then you

That would actually be a really nice enhancement. It could be the rule
that if no reference says, it’s normative, if all references either
don’t say or say normative, it’s normative, if all don’t say or say
informative, it’s informative, and if some say normative and some say
informative, it’s informative. The idea being that some references to

the same document may be normative and some informative, and it makes
sense to be able to signal that in the XML. Maybe every reference
should say, but I’m sure that would be a pain.
Lots can be done with more metadata :-).
It would also be nice if the publication date could default to “today”
and if the draft number could be determined automatically based on what
is most recent…
It already does default to "today", unless I'm missing something.
Calculating the draft number *could* be done at submission time; I
wouldn't want to do it always, because then, if the last was "01", the
generated one will say "02" - even if it never gets submitted.
