don't warn about most nesting

telic commented 9 years ago

The NestingValidator doesn't need to be quite so picky. Most tags should be allowed to cross without warning or error, including self-nested tags.

There are a few exceptions:

sectioning elements (FRONTMATTER, BACKMATTER, DIV, ACT, SCENE) should not cross MARG or BRACEGROUP
ACT, SCENE, and DIV should not cross others of the same type
DIV should not cross FRONTMATTER or BACKMATTER
ORNAMENT should not cross lines
CL and LD should not cross each other
COL should not cross itself

All those mentioned above should be errors, not simply warnings.

If A can't split B, then can B split A?

This is a split warning:

<WORK><A><B></A></B></WORK>

Is this?

<WORK><B><A></B></A></WORK>

I can't think of any case where it wouldn't be symmetric. A splits B at the same time that B splits A.

Add a schema attribute on Tag, noSplit="HW, S, FOO" etc.

Missing from the list above: SIG, RT, PN, and CW should never cross one another either.
