Adding Scalacheck-based tests as proposed in scala/scala-xml#606 would help catch these in fs2-data itself.

I fear this is a limitation of the current character enumeration method. I need to dig deeper.

After investigating more I understood what the problem is. The fs2-data XML parser uses XML namespace, which restricts the range of valid element identifier.

The character classes defined here can be derived from the Unicode 2.0 character database as follows:

Name start characters must have one of the categories Ll, Lu, Lo, Lt, Nl.

Name characters other than Name-start characters must have one of the categories Mc, Me, Mn, Lm, or Nd.

I might change this, to make it optional through an option (NCName parsing or not).

Would that be acceptable to you?

It looks I was referring to an obsolete version of names, I need to change it, actually…

Glad you figured it out. I have no clue about this stuff, just reporting the discrepancy I discovered. Appreciate your work!!

Btw Ross ended up publishing scalacheck instances for scala-xml:
