I don't know about 'alone', but I guess I don't interpret <any> vs
<element ref=[foreign elt]> in the way you do -- either one can be for
integrating locally-controlled vocabularies or for allowing foreign
vocabularies to 'plug in' -- the difference is signalled for me by the
namespace, not the schema mechanism used to allow it.
