I'm definitely not an expert on XML and schemas so I could use some
education on this topic.

Right now, the -config.xml files reflect the Configuration.java files.  So
when I add a new configuration option by modifying Configuration.Java or
JSGoogConfiguration.java, I know how it will look in the -config.xml and
on the command-line.

I think you are saying that by creating a schema file, some part of the
development/use process will be easier, but I'm not clear on what.  I get
that a schema is good for things like SOAP or the AIR -app.xml file, but
there are no command-line equivalents for the entities in those files.

Thanks,
