Mismatch between XML-Schema API and Xerces Implentation

Hi,

I'm not sure if one should call the following a bug, but at least it 
seems like a misdirection which costs me an hour of debugging time.

The interface org.apache.xerces.xs.XSModel of the XML-Schema API has a 
convenience method getElementDeclaration(). The complete signature is:

public XSElementDeclaration getElementDeclaration(String namespace,
                                                      String name);
                                                      
This means the first argument of the method should be the namespace and 
the second one the name of the wanted element declaration.

But the implementation in package org.apache.xerces.impl.xs.XSModelImpl 
is the other way round:

public XSElementDeclaration getElementDeclaration(String name,
                                               String namespace)
