Proposal/Question for XMLSchema-instance schema

Hi all,
looking at the schema for the XMLSchema-instance namespace I found that the
contained attributes are all of type "anySimpleType":
 <xs:attribute name="nil"/>
 <xs:attribute name="type"/>
 <xs:attribute name="schemaLocation"/>
 <xs:attribute name="noNamespaceSchemaLocation"/>
Wouldn't it be better if they were typed?
 <xs:attribute name="nil" type="xs:boolean"/>
 <xs:attribute name="type" type="xs:QName"/>
 <xs:attribute name="schemaLocation">
 <simpleType>
 <list itemType="xs:string"/>
 </simpleType>
 </xs:attribute>
 <xs:attribute name="noNamespaceSchemaLocation" type="xs:string"/> <!-- or
xs:anyURI -->
Maybe this would make validation a little bit easier because then these
attributes could be validated like normal attributes.
