The WG discussed this issue at its telcon today.  The results have been
transmitted to the originator of the issue by email archived at 

 
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-xml-schema-comments/2009AprJun/0115.html

the salient content of which reads:

Dear Herr Grundmann,

Many thanks for your interest in XSD 1.1, and for your comment on
the expressive power of the XPath subset defined for identity
constraints.

The XML Schema WG has created issue 6706 in the W3C instance of Bugzilla
(http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6706) to track the
issue you raise.

We discussed this issue during our meeting today.  The consensus
in the WG was that the best way to handle this issue at this time
is to classify it as a request for enhancement, and to recommend
it for consideration in a future version of XSD.  (The current
version of XSD is, the WG felt, too far advanced to be able to take
this suggestion into consideration in XSD 1.1.)  In the meantime,
some WG members suggested, it may be possible to use the
assertions construct of XSD 1.1 to enforce integrity
constraints of the type you have sketched in your example.

Accordingly I am closing this issue with a disposition of LATER.

Please let us know if you agree with this resolution of your
issue, by adding a comment to the issue record and changing the
Status of the issue to Closed. Or, if you do not agree with this
resolution, please add a comment explaining why. If you wish to
appeal the WG's decision to the Director, then also change the
Status of the record to Reopened. If you wish to record your
dissent, but do not wish to appeal the decision to the Director,
then change the Status of the record to Closed. (Alternatively,
if using Bugzilla is not convenient, you can just reply to this
email.)  If we do not hear from you in the next ten days or so,
we will assume you agree with the WG decision.

---

I'm updating the Bugzilla record accordingly.
