If you write the doc carefully, I think this is an excellent solution.  
One would then have "richmail", plus
  text-plus/sgml-dtd-foo    *and*
  text-plus/sdif
And a more-or-less clear rule that one of the two above, and not 
"richmail", were the appropriate models for transporting "real" SGML 
documents.

I was obviously just trying to overload things a bit too much.

  Well, in the tradition of the very useful Crispin-is-a-fool 
placeholder for a concept we needed to get right before agreeing on a 
name, I thought this was deserved and appropriate.  :-)
