To be clear, you're talking about this XSD extension datatype?

     https://www.w3.org/TR/xsd-precisionDecimal/

Technically, this document specifies an extension to XSD 1.1 while libxml2 
only supports version 1.0. But since it's just a new datatype, it should work 
with the old version as well.

Me personally, no. But libxml2 is an open-source project, and in principle we 
accept contributions from everyone. Things can move a bit slow due to a lack 
of maintainers, though.
