No constraints SHOULD be placed on the xsd: string. These constraints SHOULD be handled by an implementation detail, and if found to err, raise an error.
The technical specification SHOULD provide a warning or implementor's hint about this possible condition. If appropriate, this hint SHOULD be referenced in descriptive text in the technical specification and any well-formedness rules referenced that may assist in ease of development.

Original Work Item 44 and 57:
Constraints on white space - Should constraints be placed on the use of xsd:string in usage in BPSS or left to implementation and deployment?
Define what facets, if any should be used on the data types used on all or specific BPSS elements. In XSD, the xsd:string can use preserve, collapse and replace whitespace facets to ensure consistency. What should the BPSS use? |
