modelgroups with more than 8 elements

The schema web page for Xerces-J reads:

 "Finally, note that in all model groups fewer
 than 8 elements must be used."

Is this still true or left-over documentation?
Am I reading this correctly by assuming it means
this won't work:

    <sequence> <!-- or 'choice' or 'all' -->
      <element name="e1" ...
      <element name="e2" ...
      ....
      <element name="e9" ...
    </sequence>

Maybe this should be worded: "note that in <all> model groups...".  The 8
element restriction only applies to <all>, not to <sequence> etc.
