So it's an important point... I'll simply put the generated code into the
repository and only change it for major xsd revisions I guess.
Thanks for telling me, it's really helpful. :)

I obviously missed that part...

As I need to be able to modify the model, I guess I'll consider replacing
some of my requests with XPath queries once this new version is released.
