Yes, the defaultAttributes applies only to types defined in the schema document for which the defaultAttributes attribute is specified. Types defined in other schema documents are not affected, whether they are included or acquired via import or by some other means. To cite chapter and verse: this property follows from - the rule for {attribute uses} given in section 3.4.2.4 Mapping Rule for Attribute Uses Property, and - the rule for {attribute wildcard} given in section 3.4.2.5 Mapping Rule for Attribute Wildcard Property -- **************************************************************** * C.
