Now quite what you asked for, but I feel like bragging :-)

I've got some code that creates a random document from a DTD.  It walks
the content model, picking random elements as appropriate.  It's a
plugin to my app Conglomerate (go to File->New and select "Random
Document" from the list of available document types).

It also generates random Unicode strings for the PCDATA, which gives the
i18n support a good workout.

Lots of fun, and an evil test case... tends to crash things ATM :-)
