I fully realise that my scheme does not handle multi-dim or sparse arrays.

This is OK. My approach is to show that we can handle 1D arrays, and then try to show that we can do multiD arrays via a hidden 1D array. One step at a time! The second step may or may not be possible within a single DFDL schema. I don't knwo yet. --- Robert E.
