This should just be:
      extype        = <oid from section 1.4 of [Models]>

This isn't ABNF. 


Technically, this is a <prose-val> [RFC 2234]:
        prose-val      =  "<" *(%x20-3D / %x3F-7E) ">"
                               ; bracketed string of SP and VCHAR
                                  without angles
                               ; prose description, to be used as
                                  last resort

But I agree that we should avoid use of <prose-val> here
and elsewhere in this grammar.

That would be a good thing. I will switch to the form Steven suggests, e.g.,

   extype = oid ; from section 1.4 of [Models]
