      the dfdl:byteOrder property is not supposed to influence the endian-ness of encoding code points.

      the encoding "utf-16" is currently accepted by daffodil. However, we don't implement unicode byte order marks. Hence, this encoding is ambiguous, as is utf-32.

      We should reject these encodings until such time as unicode byte order mark support is implemented.
