We should add local catalog/caching support to XSV, ala SP's[1].
It shouldn't be necessary for folks to mess with their instance
documents just to tell XSV where local copies of web resources
are available.
In fact, XSV does have a primitive form of catalog, doesn't
it? It accepts the equivalent of schemaLocation stuff
on the command line, no? (browse source code a bit...)
no, I guess it doesn't.
[1] "SYSTEM sysid1 sysid2
This specifies that sysid2 should be used as the effective system
identifier if the system identifier specified in the external
identifier was
sysid1. sysid2 should always be quoted to ensure that it is not
misinterpreted when parsed by a system that does not support this
extension. "
