I forgot the other way... for a 1 schema solution define extra types
book-seller-author, book-distributor-author etc then somehow add the
appropriate xsi:type attribute to the <Author> element when doing the
respective validation:

<Author xsi:type="book-seller-author">

<Author xsi:type="book-distributor-author">

...the relevant type definition will then be used instead of the
standard definition for <Author>.
