I was just wanting to check an idea which I'll have to submit more
blindly then...

Wouldn't a XSLT transformation be a possible alternative ?

The down side is that we can expect, in the long term, that more XML
parsers will support XML Schema pre processing than a XSLT
"pre-transformation" --even if it's quite easy to implement a XSLT
transformation as a SAX filter and if the W3C is already hosting an
online XSLT transformation service.

On the other hand, XSLT has a status of recommendation and plenty of
stable implementations.

I think an "official" W3C XSLT transformation to transform XHTML, SMIL
or SVG in composite formats including XLink attributes in a documented
fashion would be very useful.
