So that's what you actually do as a standard thing in your projects so that
you can use Saxon-SA?
No manual intervention required?

	* it may generate schemas that violate W3C XML Schema's restrictions on
ambiguous content models;
	* it may generate schemas that violate W3C XML Schema's restrictions on
consistent element types;

generalization is generated; it should give a warning in this case, but
does not always do so.
