Thank you, as always, for your contribution to the project work!

Thankfully, this element is defined as part of a W3C specification we 
are including in UBL only by schema reference:

   http://www.w3.org/TR/XAdES/

The writers of that W3C specification are allowed to use the letters 
"X", "M" and "L" in element names:

    http://www.w3.org/TR/2008/REC-xml-20081126/#NT-element

(though perhaps they are stretching their own rules because the 
citation states the reservation is for only the XML specification and 
not other specifications, but that is their problem and not UBL's)

Thanks, again!
