You're absolutely right - I think for the purposes of DTLL it's RNG's
description of how an href value is first resolved into 'an element'
that it might be useful to borrow - what happens next is then
schema-specific.

One thing that worries me is that DTLL can hosts XSLT/XPath expressions
(any potentially expressions in other languages) which need to resolve
relative URLs -- for example a document() function might be used to
reference some look-up data. In this case is the URL resolved relative
to the includer or the includee base URI? This is a problem that
XInclude/xml:base can solve ...
