DTD-awareness would definitely help some output.
Our DTD is a mix of several DTDs and contains several implicit 
attributes such as namespace declarations... I have proposed a patch to 
XMLOutputter which uses a DTD-parser loaded DTD in order to avoid the 
addition of these implicit attributes... our re-output sources are 
suddenly readable again!

But I would more call this usage of DTD a "notation" usage instead of a 
validation...

I wouldn't know how to validate the output of XMLOutputter except 
reparse it!!
