If the user provides their own Appender as a plugin they are free to create other plugins that the Appender can then reference. The same is true for Filters, Lookups, etc. XMLConfiguration and JSONConfiguration don't care about specific element names - only that they map to a defined plugin. So any scheme you come up with to generate a fully strict schema would have to be able to account for user defined plugins.
