The other objection, even if trang (or some other system) could read
xsd, is that if xsd is the master then can't express many of the
constraints that you want to express. Especially (in my case)
constraints on attributes where XSD is no better than DTD, just harder
to read, but Relax NG can constrain attributes in pretty much the same
way as elements.
