Perhaps not a bug but inconvenient behaviour.

If you change namespace of your XML instance then validator can't find
schema for this namespace. And in this situation validator behaviour
varies -- some will complain about missing declarations and some will
skip validation of element for which there is no corresponding schema
declaration.

IMHO, that's a sure bug.


Not at all. The XSD specification defines two operations called "strict validation" and "lax validation", and a processor may provide either or both. If it doesn't give you a choice then that's a limitation but not a bug. If it doesn't tell you which it's offering, then that's a documentation bug.
