Sadly the best you can do with this is define a complex type with complex 
content that is mixed.  You have no control over the type of TEXT data 
within the mixed content, or even where it is placed.

I've often thought it would be nice to have an xs:text element that was 
analogous to an xs:element, but didn't have start and end tags.  You could 
then do:

<xs:complexType name='fooType'>
    <xs:sequence>
        <xs:text type='xs:int'/>
        <xs:element name='bar1'/>
        <xs:element name='bar2'/>
    </xs:sequence>
    <xs:attribute name='atr1' type='xs:string'/>
</xs:complexType>

But I've never sat down and thought through the implications of this so have 
never formally proposed it.  I would be interested to hear whether anybody 
else has thought it through though.

Interestingly (or otherwise) a complex type with simple content could be 
expressed as:

<xs:complexType name='fooType'>
    <xs:sequence>
        <xs:text type='xs:int'/>
    </xs:sequence>
    <xs:attribute name='atr1' type='xs:string'/>
</xs:complexType>

and I wonder whether that could simplify the specs.
