xsd:any does not determine how the XML is "parsed"
into sub-elements.
The xsd:any does, however, help the XMl processing
determine whether
a document is "valid". Ie xsd:any
plays in the validation function, not
the parsing function (deserialization) per se.

I am not sure what the key/keyref is relating here.

key and keyref are explicitly forbidden from appearing on an element declartion
using the ref= construct.

A very good point, but let me check something.
IANAXEB (I am not an xml expert but..) I think even parsing the xsd:any
part of a document into sub-elements with string values makes
assumptions, namely that each child is independent.This is not always
the case for a general xml document; there could, for example, be
key/keyref constraints on the newly added elements so that they are
related to each other (for example, they must exist in pairs.)
Is this allowed in a Resource Properties (RP)document? If RP is
constrained to be a list of independent children then an application
may, as your use case suggests, copy/display them independently.

Yes, sorry for the confusion.
