It might not be a good practice, and it's just meant to be a repro case,
but...
1) The names for keys, elements, attributes, types, ... belong to
different "namespaces" (or should I say spaces of names to avoid
confusion with the XML namespaces? ) and can be reused.
2) A xs:keyref may refer to either a xs:key or a xs:unique (this is
valid per the W3C XML Schema recommendation).
