I'm so sorry, I should have been more clear. I just mean the xsd:any
and xsd:anyAttribute extension in schemas. The handling of these in
JAXB 2.0 is great; I'm wondering if there's some vendor
enhancement/hack I could use to do something similar in JAXB 1.0.
(e.g. WS-Addressing - works great in JAXB 2.0 - and OK in JAXB 1.0 -
though in 1.0 all the xsd:any / xsd:anyAttribute's are trimmed out).
