Build Identifier: M20110909-1335

I have an element described by the following DTD:

<!ELEMENT foo EMPTY>

Suppose in an xml file (using this DTD) I have the tag:

<foo/>

The XML Design Editor will allow me to add some text into this node.

If I validate the document at this point, the following (correct) error is reported:

The content of element type "foo" must match "EMPTY".

I'd expect it NOT to be editable due to the DTD specification of the element.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I've attached a testcase for the sake of simplicity:

1. Open NewFile.xml in the xml Design Editor
2. Edit the content of foo element
