Because your favorite schema language does not support the feature does not make it a daft constraint. The ability to negate wildcards is an oft requested feature of users of W3C XML Schema and makes sense if one could write something akin to 

	<xs:any namespace="not(##targetNamespace)" /> 

although in this case I assume Tim would want something akin to  


	<xs:any namespace="not(##targetNamespace ##local)" />
