1.If the type of the field or property is a collection type, then the collection item type must map to a simple schema type. Examples:
// Examples (not exhaustive): Legal usage of @XmlValue
	@XmlValue List<Integer> foo; // int maps to xs:int
	@XmlValue String[] foo; // String maps to xs:string
	@XmlValue List<Bar> foo; // only if Bar maps to a simple schema type

2.If the type of the field or property is not a collection type, then the type of the property or field must map to a schema simple type.

3.Validation for these statements from the spec. I'm getting feedback from Blaise on whether the second statement is invalid, since they conflict. An XML-bound class would be one that is in the JAXB context and not annotated with @XmlTransient.

*If the class, subClass, derives from another XML-bound class, baseClass directly or indirectly (other than java.lang.Object), then the subClass must not contain a mapped property or field annotated with @XmlValue annotation.

*The containing class must not extend another class (other than java.lang.Obect).
