dear xml schema working group.
in an xml-centric processing environment, xml:* attributes can appear
in various locations in xml documents, sometimes because of authors
or authoring tools (xml:lang), sometimes because of xml technologies
(xinclude). it would be good if a schema could more easily
accommodate these attributes than be having to add them everywhere in
the schema.
whether this is something that will only address xml:* attributes, or
attributes in general (from any namespace) is something that i would
like to leave open for discussion, but it certainly would be useful
to have an easy way to plug together w3c xml technologies without
having to resort to rather cumbersome and brittle ways of specifying
things.
if possible, please cc me on replies, i am not on the mailing list.
thanks for your consideration and kind regards,
