It returns a list because the complex type definition has a mixed
content model.
Mixed content means that
there is "character" data interspersed with children elements. (Marked
up text like
html) The order of the elements and text is significant, thus, the only
way to represent
this sequencing is a list of the choice of javax.xml.bind.Element and
java.lang.String (for text).
If you remove mixed="true" from above, the schema-derived interface
would have one property per element within the choice.
See Section 5.9.4 "Bind mixed content" in the JAXB 1.0 specification
for detailed explanation and an example.
