Follow-up to image map discussion

I ran some tests with the following image map markup, Oxygen, and DITA-OT:

Shape = default, no content for <coords>; result: The entire image is the linked region.

<imagemap id="pie-chart">
<image href="Pie_Chart_Example.png" id="pie_chart">
  <alt>Pie Chart Example</alt>
</image>
<area>
  <shape>default</shape>
    <coords/>
    <xref href="https://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/FrontPage"
         format="html”

scope="external"/>
</area>
</imagemap>

Shape = default, <coords> contains content; result: The entire image is the linked region. But Oxygen generated a Schematron message that “The default shape means the entire diagram, so we should have no coordinates.”

<imagemap id="pie-chart">
<image href="Pie_Chart_Example.png" id="pie_chart">
  <alt>Pie Chart Example</alt>
</image>
<area>
  <shape>default</shape>
    <coords>5, 9, 70, 9</coords>
    <xref href="https://wiki.oasis-open.org/dita/FrontPage"
          format="html"

scope="external"/>
</area>
</imagemap>

Best,
