<subject id="subject">Attention Bart Simpson</subject><body id="body">Please hand in your homework before the end of the day</body><reference anchor="#subject" begin="9" end="21" type="mention"/> </message>
Why is there a number sign ('#') before the element name? What if there is another first-level stanza child element with a local name 'subject' but a different namespace?
I am happy to ignore the existence of xml:lang for now, but I think the 'anchor' attribute value should be specified to be either in Clark notation, or, if not, reference first-level stanza child elements by their localname with the same namespace as the stanza. So your example becomes
<message type="headline" from="sch...@springfield.city">
<subject id="subject">Attention Bart Simpson</subject>
<body id="body">Please hand in your homework before the end of the
day</body>
<reference anchor="subject" begin="9" end="21" type="mention"/>
</message>
and, in case of a theoretical <subject xmlns='foo'> element.
<message type="headline" from="sch...@springfield.city">
<subject xmlns='foo' id="subject">Attention Bart Simpson</subject>
<body id="body">Please hand in your homework before the end of the
day</body>
<reference anchor="{foo}subject" begin="9" end="21" type="mention"/>
</message>
