The validateElement call appears to be specific to Xerces, so your best
bet for finding out more about it would be the Xerces website and/or
mailing list.

For what it's worth, I would expect validation to run at or after
end-element rather than when the element is started, since you can't
possibly have enough information to perform validation until all the
element's contents have been examined.
