Request #1 on the xsd of Akoma Ntoso

Dear all,
a Japanese researcher noticed that Akoma Ntoso is not able to mark up
Japanese law structure in the heading part because the heading is
located in the text before of number of the article.
http://www.fsa.go.jp/common/law/bank01.pdf
http://www.lvi2015.org/programme/papers/LVI2015_Kawachi_Akoma_Ntoso_XML.pdf
The fragment of text is the following:  (Definitions, etc.) Article 2  The Akoma Ntoso WD16 representation is the follow: <article eId="art_2">
<num>Article 2 </num>
<heading eId="art_2__hdg">(Definitions, etc.)</heading>
<paragraph eId="art_2__para_1">
<num>(1)</num>
but the Japanese colleague has modified the schema just for permitting
this one:
<article eId="art_2">
<heading eId="art_2__hdg">(Definitions, etc.)</heading>
<num>Article 2 </num>
<paragraph eId="art_2__para_1">
<num>(1)</num>
So my proposal is to modify the <sequence> in <choice> in the hcontainer
declaration.
Now the declaration is that:
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element ref="num" minOccurs="0"/>
<xsd:element ref="heading" minOccurs="0"/>
<xsd:element ref="subheading" minOccurs="0"/>
</xsd:sequence>  The proposal is the follow:
<xsd:choice>
<xsd:element ref="num" minOccurs="0"/>
<xsd:element ref="headings" minOccurs="0"/>
</xsd:choice>  Where <xsd:complexType name="headings">
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element ref="heading" minOccurs="0"/>
<xsd:element ref="subheading" minOccurs="0"/>
</xsd:sequence> </xsd:complexType>
I leave to Fabio the best way to translate this requirement into Akoma
Ntoso xsd. It is just an example.
Yours, Monica  --
