validating open office document...

hello there:

I am starting working on a particular front using
openoffice, but I am
not sure if its entirely feasible.

--i am using openoffice as a structured document editor,
users enter
text and style the text using custom headings and styles...
(a)

--downstream the custom headings are xslted into a nested
hierarchial
xml format... (b)

--before the transformation happens downstream, i want to
validate the
opendocument to make sure the user has entered the headings
in a
proper sequence and following a certain grammar  (c)

--to do this i will write a custom schema for the
opendocument, which
enforces these rules, and i will validate the opendocument
against
that schema
(the benefit of validating the opendocument rather than the
downstream
transformed xml would be that i can provide interactive
messages in
the context of the document being edited....) (d)


I have been able to do (a) and (b), but (c) and (d) is where
i want to
be.... am i aiming for something realistically possible or
....?

thanks

Ashok
