Regarding default values: We have dropped them already. I unfortunately missed to remove them from the current schema so far, but the TC already agreed to do so. Regarding replacing xsd:ID and xsd:IDREF with xsd:NCName: As James Clark pointed out, we then would not follow the recommendation in the xml:id specification. So, taking it all together, we only have a choice to follow the recommendations in the xml:id specification, or to be compliant with the RNG Compatibility specification. Both together does not work. Right now we are normatively referencing the xml:id specification and are following its recommendations for RNG. We are not (normatively or informative) referencing the RNG Compatibility specification. Is what you request that we anyway break the recommendations of the xml-id specification, and instead make the schema compliant with the RNG Compatibility specification, which we are not referencing, and for which James Clark says that it might also be a good idea to revise it to be xml:id aware? As users of RNG and xml:id I'm not glad that the xml-id specification and the RNG Compatibility specification are not compatible. Things would be much easier for us if they would be compatible. But we are the ODF TC. There is nothing we can change about this.
