[A] : DTD for XSL Style-sheets

["G. Ken Holman" <gkholman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Given this definition of xsl:define-attribute-set and xsl:attribute-set:

<!ELEMENT xsl:define-attribute-set (xsl:attribute-set)>
<!ATTLIST xsl:define-attribute-set
  name NMTOKEN #REQUIRED
>
<!ELEMENT xsl:attribute-set EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST xsl:attribute-set

  xsl:use NMTOKENS #IMPLIED
>

was it considered to combine the two into something along the lines of:

<!ELEMENT xsl:define-attribute-set EMPTY>
<!ATTLIST xsl:define-attribute-set
  xsl:name NMTOKEN #REQUIRED
  xsl:use NMTOKENS #IMPLIED
>

to reduce the amount of element structure?  If so, what are the benefits of
the structure as decided?
