I don't get it.  If the exact content is predetermined, what information does
the document convey?

If a large section of a document must be boilerplate for content from a
specific source, why not make a schema and documents such that the boilerplate
content is excluded, then use XSLT to insert the boilerplate content after the
initial validation is done?

Finally, if inserting the content fixed later is not an option, you could use
a combination of XML Schema and Schematron since Schematron makes it easy to
validate data content.  In the case below, you just first assert that, in the
context of "/colors", "color[1]='green' and color[2]='red'"
