I would like to help with the maintenance and enhancement of nXML mode.
Here are some things which may be considered:
1. Make indentation in nXML mode compatible with that in the official
SGML mode, and in the unofficial PSGML mode; the latter indentation
styles are arguably more natural, and followed by projects like the
FreeBSD Documentation Project. I had stumbled across this problem
recently, as in
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2018-05/msg00009.html
2. Addition of features in PSGML mode, e.g,
a) Information about the schema: analogues of
`sgml-describe-element-type', `sgml-list-elements', etc.
b) Support for processing instructions such as, e.g.,
<?PSGML ELEMENT foo nofill=t>
which specify that a `foo' element should not be disturbed when
filling a region; this is useful if one wants to fill a buffer
containing verbatim elements such as program listings.
c) Provision of more editing commands analogous to `sgml-tag-region',
`sgml-auto-insert-required-elements', etc.
3. Support for XInclude.
4. Provision of a facility similar to RefTeX for manipulating
cross-references in a modular document.
5. Analogues of `LaTeX-fill-region' and friends from AUCTeX.
6. More documentation.
I would like advice on how to proceed.
Thanks,
Raghu.

There is not and cannot be One True Way to indent XML, for all users and
uses of nXML.
XML formats are used for text markup languages such as XHTML and DocBook;
configuration files; and various data files. The indentation rules in
‘nxml-indent-line’ are very much oriented towards data files — as in, “add
a level of indentation for every unclosed opening tag; remove a level of
indentation for every closing tag opened elsewhere, independent of the
actual tag names”. I am not well acquainted with PSGML, but I suspect that
it is is more text-markup-oriented.
What I would like is a way to specify indentation rules depending on the
XML schema, so that I could use one set of rules for XHTML, another for
DocBook, a third one for FictionBook 2, and a default set for all other
types of XML documents.
I sort-of can do that now. This involves: hooking ‘rng-schema-change-hook’;
in the hook function, looking at ‘rng-current-schema’ to see if its ‘caddr’
is "html"; and, if so, pointing ‘indent-line-function’ at my own function
that pretty much has to reimplement the whole of ‘nxml-indent-line’ from
scratch, in about 250 lines of Elisp.
Maybe the first step would be to identify specific indentation rules people
want, and provide building blocks for those.
To give an example of things I customize *for the html schema only*:
* Do not increase indentation level inside <html>, <body>, any inline
elements, and any elements with flow content model (defined by enumerating
all their tag names).
<html>
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
consectetur wgah’nagl fhtagn.</p>
</body>
</html>
* Do increase indentation level inside a few select flow-content elements
such as <li>.
* Increase indentation level inside mixed content model elements (also
defined by enumeration) if and only if they contain block elements
(determined as no text following the opening tag on the same line).
<blockquote>
<p>Paragraph 1 of quote</p>
<p>Paragraph 2 of quote</p>
</blockquote>
but:
<blockquote>Lorem ipsum
dolor sit amet</blockquote>
* Increase indentation level of a <dd> immediately following a <dt>…</dt>,
and decrease indentation level of a <dt> immediately following a <dd>…</dd>.
<dl>
<dt>Apple</dt>
<dd>A type of fruit.</dd>
<dd>A computer company.</dd>
<dt>Banana</dt>
<dd>Another type of fruit.</dd>
</dl>
* Never attempt to reindent inside <style>, <script>, <pre>, <code> and
<textarea>.

Better to have this controlled by a customizable variable, so as not to
litter the document text with Emacs/nXML-specific instructions. Again, this
variable should be keyed by schema, and contain a list of element tag names
inside which filling is undesirable.

Sure, the user can always change it. Every mode comes with a default
indentation style. I am only suggesting that the default indentation
rules of nXML conform to those of the SGML and PSGML modes.

Yes, and PSGML provides a many more editing facilities for authors of
documents, than does nXML.

I wonder if you can share your code here; perhaps I or someone else can
try to adapt it into a general function in nXML.

Sure, one can have both the PI and variable customisation methods. PIs
for editing have been a common facility in SGML and XML; for instance,
just today I saw that XMLMind has a PI mechanism for associating a RELAX
NG schema with a document.

And I’m suggesting that text markup languages constitute a small portion of
all XML-based formats, and thus the default rules might be good enough for
the majority of the formats.

Why not. Warning, personal-use-quality code ahead.

Yes, in general sharing more code between those modes would be great.
nXML's indentation algorithm is indeed one of its main weaknesses in
my experience.

Not sure what this would do which the default fill-region wouldn't do
(once the indentation is improved)?
If I may add a personal wish: make it a bit more permissive with respect
to details of the header (or better help the user fix those headers) so
it's easier to use it for HTML5.

Perhaps, but even SGML was mostly used in industry, and data was a key
form of content in that usage. So, the SGML mode indentation cannot be
assumed to be specifically friendly to textual content, and unfriendly
to data-centric content. Secondly, SGML and XML files with data content
are typically generated by a program, and processed by another, so
indentation doesn't matter for them; the whole document could be in one
long line.
In summary, the current indentation scheme of nXML is probably
irrelevant to data-centric usage, but is unfriendly to textual usage.
The (P)SGML type of indentation also is irrelevant to data-centric
usage; it is, however, friendly to textual usage, as it conforms with
the indentation schemes of other Emacs modes for structured markup, as
in AUCTeX:
\begin{theorem}Let us suppose that the noumena have nothing to do with
necessity, since knowledge of the Categories is a posteriori. Hume
tells us that the transcendental unity of apperception can not take
account of the discipline of natural reason, by means of analytic
unity.\end{theorem}
\begin{corollary}
It remains a mystery why the Ideal stands in need of reason. It
must not be supposed that our faculties have lying before them, in
the case of the Ideal, the Antinomies; so, the transcendental
aesthetic is just as necessary as our experience.
\end{corollary}
The above indentation is exactly the one (P)SGML mode gives in the same
situation.
In any case, I have been told recently that I am not the first person
who has complained about nXML indentation!
> and thus the default rules might be good enough for the majority of

Just as I am suggesting that the (P)SGML indentation rules are also good
enough for most types of usage. They have the added advantage of being
similar to the default indentation styles of other similar modes.
> Why not.
Thanks for sharing that. I haven't looked at it closely yet, but it
looks like one can mimic it to define variables whose values are alists
in which the car of every element is a schema, and cdr a list of
elements in that schema which need a certain kind of indentation. I'll
try to cook up something, and report here.

Okay. So I hope people will help if I come back here for help as I
attempt to implement some of the above things :-)

I don't know, but I use `LaTeX-fill-buffer' often, and it is a pleasure
to see it chugging along, saying "57% ..." and such things, and
eventually providing a buffer with the contents filled and indented
exactly as I would have done manually. I don't have much experience
with `fill-region' in other modes; perhaps they work equally well.

HTML5 is not an XML application, so I don't think nXML is the right mode
for it. (It is not an SGML application, so (P)SGML is also
inappropriate for it.) One possibility is to use the XHTML5 RELAX NG
schema from the Nu Validator,
https://github.com/validator/validator/blob/master/schema/html5/xhtml5.rnc
There is also an `html5.rnc' there, and I don't know what the difference
is. I almost never write HTML manually, and have not used either of
them.

Sorry, I was thinking of indent-region rather than fill-region.
Ideally, it also should be possible to hook into fill-region to do
whatever you want, but it's a long-standing missing functionality.

It's close enough for my use, with the GNU ELPA `html5-schema` package
(which should be improved to include SVG etc...).

That's what html5-schema does.
