They are being used in APIs (see Xerces for example [1]) for selection and identification of schema processors which support specific versions of the XML Schema language.

It's a shame this change to the semantics of the JAXP API hasn't been discussed and agreed on any JAXP mailing list that I'm aware of. If it had, then there might be more than one processor that supported it by now.
