Why not make it normative?

It seems to me that a standard in this area would permit non-schema-aware tools
to work with the PSVI (see Rick Jelliffe's note about XSLT and Schematron), and
would let PSVI consuming applications be agnostic as to which schema languages
they support. It would be a step back towards making the whole set of XML
recommendations more modular.
