In reality, something much more than that needs to be done, similar to what
EntityResolver does. You probably do not know what namespaces are used in a
document before you parse it. And since namespaces can be embedded within a
document, you do not even have this info when parsing the doc element. And
finally, most if not all server side applications will not be retrieving
schemas over the internet or relying on the schemaLocation attribute because
it is inherently unsecure. There is currently no standard way of doing this,
but that doesn't mean the XML community can not come up with one by
extending SAX.
