Given that you've received "several comments" on this issue, I don't understand why you aren't willing to revisit this issue. Although inheritance can "solve" the relevant use cases, it's non-intuitive, and I think it will cause a great deal of confusion for potential users of WSDL 2.0, and it may be significant enough of an issue to forestall wide adoption of the new spec.
