p:import-schema

Hi all,

After reading the text about p:schema-import (btw, there is a typo in
the first sentence: "...that will to be available to the pipeline"), I
am not sure what should happen in this case:

<p:pipeline>
  ...
  <p:import-schema .../> <!-- import schema A -->
  ...
  <p:declare-step>
    // a sub-pipeline
    ...
    <p:import-schema .../> <!-- import schema B -->
    ...
  </p:declare-step>

  ...
</p:pipeline>

If I read the spec correctly, schema definitions from schema A are
available in the nested pipeline. But what about the other way around? I
would say that in the scope of the nested pipeline, the schema
definitions from schema B will be "merged" with A, but they will not be
visible in the top-level pipeline. Is this correct?

Also, what happens with schema definitions if I import a library that
contains a schema-import?

<p:library> <!-- "library.xpl" -->
  ...
  <p:import-schema .../>
  ...
</p:library>

<p:pipeline>
  ...
  <p:import href="library.xpl"/>
  ...
</p:pipeline>

Is p:import-schema still considered a feature at risk? If so, the spec
does not mention this.
