It seems some of this might have split out under the XML-InfoSet Spec
(http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-xml-infoset-20010202).
Under section 2.1:
"1. [childern] An order list of child information items, in document order"
This is repeated under 2.2 #4 as compared to #5
"5. [attributes] An unordered set of attribute information items, one for each of the attributes (specified or
defaulted from the
DTD) of this element."

I'm still looking into some of this but the XML Info Set seems to be a start.
