No. If you want to be doing any validation on it switch it to XML Schema
or RelaxNG but not DTD. Order on the tags just doesn't make any sense.
And would make hand editting incredibly hard. You'd suddenly have to
remember not only the base syntax but the exact order of tags, and we
do have quite a few.
