In my case, I use only few Y methods, so X abstract those methods and I
can use Y methods indirecly.

// handwritten
abstract X {
    abstract Foo getFoo();

    void doCustom() {
        getFoo();
    }
}

// generated
Y extends X {
    Foo getFoo();
}

The limit is not a software limit but a developper limit =)
I prefer dev those methods on a real class to use IDE functions (error
detection, completion, unit tests…) instead of bloated blob on XSD.
