Which shows no sign (or need?) for a schema [language]?

I'm quite confused as to why someone would want to invent a new schema
language particularly for uxml?

If I can determine that my XML instance is uxml (well formed and ...
not containing stuff that is in XML, not in uxml - whatever that is
described as [1]) then why can't I use relax NG or XSD if I must, as
a schema? The only oddity is the optional James 'Keep html5 happy'
doctype. Apart from that I think I can use relax as my tool to
validate my uxml instance?

Am I wrong in this, or has this thread changed to 'lets invent
a new schema language'


[1] Let's call it uxml-valid for now.
