Object BOM Native Type

There are four different varieties of BOM objects. xsd:any, xsd:anyAttribute, xsd:anyType, xsd:anySimpleType.

All of these allow for different assignments. However, once data has been stored in an object, it cannot be read back out into its original type. It must remain in that object. It is also not possible to assign a BOM object of one variety into a BOM object of a different variety.
