Does the standard say this?  It doesn't require a parser to parse more
than one active doc type at a time, but does it require a parser to
parse *no more* than one at a time?

If it doesn't forbid parsing of multiple doc types simultaneously,
then I think EK has oversimplified, and his statement should be
recast to say "not all parsers claiming to support CONCUR will be
able to do this in a useful way."

Mind you, this would be more than an academic question if there were
more than one parser which did support CONCUR.
