I now think that we do not need a specialized media type for external
parameter
entites.
Having read the XML specification and errara carefully, I withdraw my
claim. An external PARAMETER entity does *not* always parse as an external
DTD subset.
For example, the following XML document is valid.
foo.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE foo SYSTEM "foo.dtd">
<foo/>
foo.dtd
<!ENTITY % foope SYSTEM "foope.mod">
<!ELEMENT foo %foope;>
foope.mod
EMPTY
The Syntax WG decided that wasn't well-formed. (Fix to E71.)
