Too late to use this as a banner to rally the troops behind, we've
already done it :-)!  This is _precisely_ how the XML Schema
architecture is specified:

 1) Start with an XML+Namespaces compliant parser output (need _not_
    be validating, but _may_ be);
 2) Specify what schemas are to be involved _outside_ the instance;
 3) _Augment_ the Infoset.
