One way for optimization would be something like an RFC for the 
T3DataStructure.

* Where do you want to use the structure?
* What elements do you think you need for that (could be possible an
   oo-model that will be transfered to a DTD)?
   The oo-model has the sence that the model could be reviewed in several
   step before implementing anything.
* What attributes are necessary for the elements?

As I wrote in the initial post.

If the knowhow of the technical solution is present, it's possible to 
design it. Writing a DT D is not hard, it's quiet easy, writing Schema 
is much harder, so just use a DTD.

Also if the solution is clean, it's easy to integrate the multilanguage 
support, eg. by
<label lang="ISOCODE">value</lang>
<media lang="ISOCODE" type="xx" and so on></media>

Do we want to gather the informations for that structure and the usecases?
