Now, it's clear that "salary" is not assessed and no validation outcome is computed for it. I have always assumed that this means no processing of the children of such an element (such as "base" and "bonus" above), even if we can find declarations for them. I think this is implied by the definition of "skip" in Section 3.10.1 The Wildcard Schema Component [1], as well as the last note in section 5.2 Assessing Schema-Validity[2]. Is there anywhere else in the Rec this is spelled out more explicitly?
