Since we now have the always-on XML structural check, I'd say we
should pick between two options:
A) Make full schema validation implicit when the modules are available.
B) Have an explicit `--enable-xml-schema-validation` switch to enable it.
I'm fine with either of these approaches. However, the explicit
`--enable-xml-schema-validation` approach has a couple of advantages:
- It makes test results, such as error messages, predictable and
independent of the environment.
- It gives users a way to check whether their environment is suitable
for full XML schema validation. If a user passes
`--enable-xml-schema-validation` and the modules aren't present,
that's an error rather than a downgrade of the check.
That said, I'm also okay with the implicit approach (A) that you
described.
Let's go with B and make sure it's enabled in CI.
