Tough standard. It seems hard to find an XML Schema feature beyond DTDs that
at least one tool doesn't screw up.

Conversely, there seems to be no tool that doesn't screw up some feature. (I
used to think XSV might be that tool, but awhile ago a union case in
key/keyref proved its downfall. On that particular one, I believe MS, Xerces
and XMLSpy were also wrong; the only correct answer came from MSV.) And
that's just the implemented features...
