But your RNC doesn't have a definition for start.  If you tried to use
jing -c with simple.rnc, it would complain since simple.rnc isn't a
standalone correct RELAX NG schema by itself.  Trang doesn't complain
because simple.rnc could potentially be part of a correct RELAX NG schema
and the translation to RELAX NG XML syntax is well defined. This is a
feature, not a bug.
