I'm not sidestepping.  I was trying to show both that schemas can't
express enough detail and that users' expectations of an IDE are based on

I don't know: you declined to detail your objections to the color

if it's more complex than can be expressed in a RELAX NG schema, the best
solution isn't necessarily bending it to fit in a RELAX NG schema.
