adding new tags without error on DTD check

[khaitan]

A valid document essentially conforms to a DTD, while a well formed does
not, it just has the valid XML syntax.
So if you add new tags in the xml doc and parse it through a validating
parser, it should conform to the dtd which the xml doc refers to.
