Useful input. We're doing some work on schema composition in the Schema WG
right now. I don't think it will include any kind of concept of
repositories, but it does aim to achieve a better balance between
interoperable/predictable behaviour and extensible/customizable behaviour
than we have now. At present there's enough abstraction built in to meet the
needs of most scenarios, I think, but too much abstraction to achieve
interoperable behaviour in all but the most simple cases.
