1) You're right, it's not allowed. You can only <redefine> a type (simple or complex) with a definition which would be legal as a definition of a new type, and the only definition of new simple types in terms of old is by restriction. 2) If you define the PartnerType as an open enumeration (i.e. a union of an enumeration and string, in that order) you can at least cover all the cases, while still documenting preferred usage.
