Speaking for myself, I have absolutely no problem whatsoever with the general idea of using a schema. Indeed I think it is good practice to declare the classes of valid XML.
My problem is with XSDL. And even if XSDL were near perfect, I think it would still be a bad idea to weld its constructs into the heart of every other XML spec.

Total passionate agreement.
