Hmm. Well, the tutorial says

"
<mixed> p </mixed>

is short for 

<interleave> <text/> p </interleave>
"

which is also what section 4.13 of the spec 
suggests says.

So I assumed 

<mixed>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="A"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="B"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="C"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
</mixed>

became

<interleave>
  <text/>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="A"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="B"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="C"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
</interleave>

by the above rule. Obviously this is not
so.

So how is p determined? 

In my case, why is p not

  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="A"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="B"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>
  <zeroOrMore>
    <element name="C"><text/></element>
  </zeroOrMore>

Where is the addition of the group wrapper
mentioned in the tutorial/spec?

Would you be able to give an example of the
type of content you intended that the mixed
element would address? Given the addition of group,
I can't see them being very common as mentioned
by the tutorial.
