Sorry, I don't see how you're getting that. A schema document is
validated by a schema (the schema for schemas) in the normal way. The
xs:ID type is as close a reconstruction of the ID type in XML 1.0 as
possible, and it applies to individual documents. I don't see
anything at the place you reference that suggests ID uniqueness is
applied to schemas, as opposed to schema documents.
