Kind of pointless to have names when there is only one entry. I'd drop, 
but if you do, you need to define what the name is.

No need to redefine a common property. And the value 0 is outside the 
scope of this binding. That's dependent on the mbox h/w.

These are not needed unless you have child nodes. If you do, then they 
also need to be defined here.
