I blogged on this at

http://saxonica.blogharbor.com/blog/_archives/2010/6/29/4565708.html

but sadly I had to pull the feature from the Saxon 9.3 release because 
testing showed that the implementation wasn't robust enough - it worked 
OK from the command line with a single schema document, but not when 
invoked from Java or in the presence of includes and imports. Perhaps it 
will find its way back in next time.
