adorning XML Schema for RDF extraction

I've just subscribed to the IG, so please pardon me if this is
a FAQ.

I've been looking around at the various papers about extracting RDF
from XML [1][2], and was wondering what the current state of such
work is. 

While these proposals look promising, I'd like to be able to adorn an
XML Schema to explicitly indicate which elements can be used as
statements; surely this shouldn't be too difficult? (disclaimer: I'm
not a Schema expert).

Has this particular approach been contemplated? I know there's been
discussion in the past; is there ongoing work or discussion in this
area? 

Cheers,
