I'm not sure I understand this sentence so I'll ask again. Should
restrictions of xs:anySimpleTYpe be allowed or not? I've heard
conflicting answers to this question from various W3C XML Schema WG
members and tend to agree with those that say it should be disallowed.
Or are you saying that schema validators should special case the sForS?

If this is the case can you show me the valid schema for the following
XML document and explain how the schema conforms to the W3C XML Schema
recommendation without importing the http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema
namespace
<myns:root xmlns:myns="urn:xmlns:25hoursaday-com:example"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";>
<xs:element name="foo" type="xs:string" />
</myns:root>
