[[[
Similarly, XBL elements (other than the xbl element itself) that do not have a correct xbl element as an ancestor are in error too, and UAs must ignore them, treating them as they would any arbitrary semantic-free XML element. ]]] -- XML Binding Language (XBL) 2.0

What is a semantic-free XML element? There is no definition for this.
How does it differ in the processing for User agents?
What a user agent is supposed to do with something which is not s semantic-free 
XML element?
I, too, agree with this comment. I don't understand the notion of semantic free. An element is given semantic not by pure magic but because there is a specification describing its semantics. There is no such thing as (universally) semantic-free XML element. There are XML elements whose semantics are unknown to a particular implementation. What you probably want to say is that any implementation has a behavior when encountering an element whose semantics is not known to that implementation. And you want that same behavior to apply to XBL elements in error. But, to solve the issue, I would propose to remove ", treating them as they would any arbitrary semantic-free XML element". I think "ignore" is enough.
