> A user has an annotation system goes by name "STF".
> These annotations need to live in the same DFDL schema as DFDL annotations. .
> They are isolated in their own xs:appinfo blocks with different source URI.
> The problem is that this annotation language uses XML attributes on some of its annotation elements (just as DFDL does).
> And there's the problem.... this annotation language has xs:attribute declarations, and Daffodil issues an SDE because of them, because we don't know that they aren't intended to be (mistakenly) used for data. We don't have a way of knowing they're only for an annotation language that we'll be ignoring. 
> We need a mechanism to tolerate these without turning off checking for misuse of DFDL-disallowed XML constructs entirely. 
> Possibilities might be to issue an SDW, but have a means for suppressing this SDW so that users with this situation don't have to put up with lots of SDW messages. Another idea is to have a dfdl:ignore annotation that can be placed on an xs:include/xs:import telling Daffodil to not carry out that import. Another possibility is to add XSD1.1 features for conditional preprocessing of schemas.
