Thanks, following ACTION-68, I've raised this with the WS-I Basic Profile.
It would seem that this isn't likely to be "Basic" given several tools
including the WS-I testing tools, reject it.

So the question remains, how widespreadly is this used, and
should the BP relax it's need for a schemaLocation (when the namespace
isn't immediately available in the wsdl/type) for this namespace.

Could the sameo issue also apply to other 'well known' namespaces?
