Ignore XML schema attbibutes in the root element

           Summary: Ignore XML schema attbibutes in the root element
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: Other
         Component: Core
        AssignedTo: ant-dev@jakarta.apache.org
        ReportedBy: rndzank@attbi.com


Since <antstructure> is not working and also it generates just a DTD there
should be other means to refer to a grammar definition (for syntax checking).
<!DOCTYPE ...> works OK but that allows only DTDs.
I tried to use a XML schema (manually created and modified from the incorrect
<antstructure> aoutput). For XML editing and validation this is way much better
but when I try to execute the build.xml it complains about the unexpected
attributes (the schema ones).

I can provide several reasons why XML schema is better than DTD, if required.

The <project> element should allow arguments like these:

<project 
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="antstructure.xsd"
   name="my_project"
   default="build_all">
