I'm not sure what your opinion is here, but don't forget that many 
XPath1.0 patterns in XSLT1.0 match/test patterns *are* describing 
content models.
This means that it wouldn't make sense to say "All description of 
content models must happen outside of the XSLT document, since schemas 
are the place to do that and not XSLTs." since the latter is not really 
true IMHO. Most of the matching done is describing context, and some of 
the matching is describing content context/ content models.

It's an overlapping range of appropriate places rather than a strict 
separation IMHO.
