Amazingly, this is almost how it works in tei emacs. You
choose a type of template (drama, dictionaries, whatever),
and you are asked to confirm the stylesheet binding. That
info is stored (if you want) in a "schemas.xml" file. Trouble
is, I cannot think of any way of distinguishing between
the files (except by name) to say which schema is to be used, however many
more rules one adds to the locating system.

So the external method works for me, in one editing environment,
clumsily. When I edit those files in oXygen, I have to bind
to schema again. I suppose if oXygen implemented James Clark's
system, I'd be better off, but still not great.

I'd (rather reluctantly) do a +1 for the PIs.
