     *  while loading the document or while invoking 
     * Document.normalizeDocument(), the post-schema-validation

     * determine if this attribute is a schema-determined ID attribute using 
     * the 
     * schema-determined ID definition in [XPointer]
     * . 
     * 
     *  If validation occurred using a DTD while loading the document or 
     * while invoking Document.normalizeDocument(), the infoset [type definition] value is used to determine if this attribute is a DTD-determined ID 
     * attribute using the 
     * DTD-determined ID definition in [XPointer]
     * . 
     * 
     *  from the use of the methods Element.setIdAttribute(), 
     * Element.setIdAttributeNS(), or 
     * Element.setIdAttributeNode(), i.e. it is an 
     * user-determined ID attribute; 
     * Note:  XPointer framework (see section 3.2 in [XPointer]
     * ) consider the DOM user-determined ID attribute as being part of the 
     * XPointer externally-determined ID definition. 
     * 
     *  using mechanisms that 
     * are outside the scope of this specification, it is then an 
     * externally-determined ID attribute. This includes using schema 
     * languages different from XML schema and DTD. 
     * 
     * 
     * 
 If validation occurred while invoking 
     * Document.normalizeDocument(), all user-determined ID 
     * attributes are reset and all attribute nodes ID information are then 
     * reevaluated in accordance to the schema used. As a consequence, if 
     * the Attr.schemaTypeInfo attribute contains an ID type, 
     * isId will always return true.
