Mike - I am not sure but my gut feeling is that it would start with the
most restrictive one first. i.e If empty string ( assuming it has
length facet 1) - would match Nothing , then xsd:token which is
restricted form of xs:string. I think you are going to get string with
white spaces collpsed ( xsd:token) if it not empty string. You can run
few tests to see the behavior..

Subject: [DFDL-WG] whitespace in DFDL annotations: right now regex
is xs:string, expression is xs:token
Sent by: dfdl-wg-bounces@ogf.org
This came up on the call. The schemas I have for DFDL annotations have
DFDLRegularExpression as an xs:string, and DFDLExpression as an xs:token.
I have no clue what a union of these types behaves like. But we have a
union called DFDLExpressionOrPatternOrNothing which is a 3-way union of
DFDLExpression, DFDLRegularExpression, and EmptyString (which is also
derived from xs:string but has length facet of 0 as well.
