I was wondering if that could be used as a kind of API to the PSVI, but
then I realised that it might work as adornments to elements, but
wouldn't be much good for attribute types that get re-used across
element types.

It still leaves the real work with the parser authors. Alternatively,
given regular expression support and exslt:node-set(), I suspect that an
XSD in XSLT project would be more feasible than previously. There's a
lot more experience floating round now than there was. I see XSDComp
seems not to have been updated since April last year - maybe time for
some sort of re-launch?
