I can see lots of use cases for dynamically generated schemas, however none of them gain or lose much from whether the syntax is XML-based or not. A trivial example is the 'Generate Schema' functionality in XML editors which are aimed at regular developers who usually start development from a sample XML instance not from an XML schema. This is especially true when the schema is complex enough that they probably couldn't write it from scratch such as is the case with XSD.

What is a use case for dynamically generated schemas?
Why does one need to use XSL for it ?
Why couldn't one use non-XML syntax for it?
