First steps towards an AST (@riking, I’d completely missed your effort when I added the XML export format and DTD; I see from your DTD some ways I can improve mine, so thanks!)
A handful of small spec issues

Here is the DTD for the XML format:

commonmark/CommonMark/blob/master/CommonMark.dtd

<!-- DTD for CommonMark xml export format -->

<!ENTITY % block
         'block_quote|list|code_block|paragraph|heading|thematic_break|html_block|custom_block'>
<!ENTITY % inline
         'text|softbreak|linebreak|code|emph|strong|link|image|html_inline|custom_inline'>

<!ELEMENT document (%block;)*>
<!ATTLIST document
    xmlns CDATA #FIXED "http://commonmark.org/xml/1.0">

<!-- block elements -->

<!ELEMENT block_quote (%block;)*>

<!ELEMENT list (item)+>
<!ATTLIST list
          type (bullet|ordered) #REQUIRED
          start CDATA #IMPLIED
          tight (true|false) #REQUIRED
