I think that validation is too expensive for simple applications.  Thus, 
I would like to separate validation and type-assignment.  Another reason 
is modularity of processes.

If type-assignment is separated from validation, type-assignment is happy 
to handle invalid documents.  The result may be almost correct or may be 
completely meaningless.
