Life is made of choices. Sometimes you just got to cut the knot.
Of course, you can also cut is differently and move to XML Schema, where you don't have the flexibility of the <exclude> for namespaces, but you can rely on xsi:schemaLocation attributes in the instance documents(and on the users that to place them there correctly) or on schemas placed so that they can be found using the namespace URI.

Aside from this example, how would this approach work for interesting elements that are in the same namespace as the base schema?
