The data model also can be generated from just Infosets. The instances will be annotated with xdt:untypedAtomic for attribute values and (currently) xs:anyType (soon xdt:untypedAny or similar) for element content type. So if XSD goes down the drain (what does this mean anyway?) XSLT and XQuery still work on untyped data. And there is no reason why you cannot add your own built-in type names and functions that operate on them (as long as your type system is consistent with the XQuery/XPath type system w.r.t. named subtyping). Only it will not be part of the W3C specs...
