RSS Parser only supports validation for RSS 1.0. Other
versions of RSS aren't supported because of RSS Parser's
validator can't handle interleave pattern (and I don't like
them.) So validation for RSS 1.0 only supports standard
order RSS. (But RSS 1.0 specification says element order is
not important.)

I'm looking forward to complete RELAX NG validator. :)
