Ray,
    You do know of course that regex is a standard facet in XML Schema, 
yes?  So all Schema compliant software will use the regex in 
validation.  If you want software to distinguish somehow between 
DateTime with hms and DateTime without hms then you had better have two 
types (as in translating into a non XML database).
