The requirement you are alluding to is the one about being able to  
represent sets of code lists.  This is different to the kind of  
code-list-fragement composition that David Webber's comment seemed  
directed at, although I do feel that his comment was a "generic approach  
to XML" kind of comment, rather than a suggestion that there would be  
end-user value in doing it for code list XML specifically.

Cheers, Tony.
