I believe that there is no point in defining an LFBLibrary with no 
content.  However:
1) It doesn't hurt anything for that to be a compliant document
2) More importantly, getting the schema to allow each piece to be 
optional, but requiring something, was going to be a lot of work.
So, since it was hard to get right, and basically didn't matter, the 
schema allows empty content.

Yours,
Joel
