Yes, the spec is correct.  I was wrong when I agreed with the belief
that it was wrong. :)  (It's correct because Schema validation happens
after the validator expands the qname, and compares that expansion to
the list of expanded enumerations that it maintains.)  And yes, I think
we should move to URI's.  After all, WS-Sec did it late in the game, so
I think we can do it, too. :)
