I don't know of any such plans at this time.  Most programmers aren't  
actually in need of schema-based validation most of the time, though  
there are clearly times when it would be handy.  Even then, however,  
getting programmers to agree as to what's needed doesn't result in a  
single clear set of requirements, mostly due to the variety of schema  
languages available; everyone needs something different.
