W3C appears to be promoting two extensions of IRIs.  One extension 
is LEIRIs, while the other is xsd:anyURI of XSD 1.1.  IMHO, this is an 
extemely bad idea.  These two should be aligned.   After all, we have 
so many variations of web addresses.  Why XSD people introduce yet
another?  Did they contact I18N, TAG, and IETF?  Or, does the 
XML Schema WG intend to make its own decision anyway?

Yes.
