I hope in a positive way ;-).

For fundamental C++ types (integers, floating point, etc), XSD sequence
is a class derived from std::vector so you should be able to pass it as
std::vector without any problems.

For non-fundamental types the only way to do this is to create a copy
as std::vector:

root_type::foo_sequence& s (r.foo ());
std::vector<root_type::foo_type> (s.begin (), s.end ());
