mm1: I think if you look at v.1.1 this has been consistently applied for 
the BusinessDocument and DocumentEnvelope, and the use of GUID and 
GUIDREF.  Sacha, are you trying to ask for some enforcement other than 
the use of the GUID/GUIDREF techniques between the BusinessDocument and 
DocumentEnvelope? Thanks.

"In BPSS XML Schema 1.01 the data type of the attribute businessDocument of the element DocumentEnvelope is "simply" a
xsd:string, which can have any value. The businessDocumentIDRef on the other hand is a xsd:IDREF data type and "must" point to a xsd:ID attribute within the XML document. An attribute of type xsd:IDREF allows the parser to validate if the value given in businessDocumentIDRef is available within the XML document. The parser has no idea about businessDocument as it is "just" a string and that will always be valid."
