Very nice!  I see metadata coming in at least from input tag
marking, output formatting and styling, document instance ID 
(UBL document processing), version tagging, and possibility 
of managing such "attachments" as company logo, formatting 
stylesheets, etc.

Are we talking about the following structure:
    <Head>
       ....
    </Head>
    <Order>
       ....
    </Order>

?  In that case should NDR consider creating an universal
outer envelope that wraps any and all UBL instances, such
as (for lack of a better name, using UBL itself):
    <UBL>
      <Head>
         ....
      </Head>
      <Order>
         ....
      </Order>
    </UBL>
?

Please advise.

Great conclusion!  What about the ruling for cardinality of 0..n?
