This is an interesting theoretical argument.  I actually tend to be on
the "can't have" side until convinced otherwise, having tried to come up
with a DTD myself several times in the past.

There's also no serious comparison between the JDO DTD (assuming you're
talking about the jdo.dtd that starts with 
<!ELEMENT jdo ((package)+, (extension)*)> ) and server.xml.  Server.xml
and tomcat configuration in general allows for far more flexibility than
JDO -- for example, the ability to place multiple, custom (custom names
and attributes) valves at different levels (under engine, under host,
under context, etc.).

However, I would be very glad to be proven wrong on this issue, and
better yet, be proven wrong with a working server.xml DTD or XSD -- it
would be a great contribution!
