I'm starting to think that there may be a slightly more generic way to define conversions from lexical to value spaces and (if desired) validate those as well. I suspect RELAX NG's basic model along with some notion of regular expression-based fragmentation and fallback (to support multiple lexical idioms) might make a lot of this work without requiring developers to step all the way back to platform-specific code. We'll see where this goes, but maybe there's hope of not only getting past the limitations of W3C XML Schema part 2, but of building a more broadly usable framework.
