Does anyone know the benefit of specifying your enumerations in a
separate "genericode" file rather than in the XSD itself?

For example, I'm currently working with the FpML 5.3 XSDs which for
some fields allow any value, but specify a productIdScheme attribute
which points to a genericode list.

One example is: http://www.fpml.org/coding-scheme/originating-event

Is anyone familiar with that technique?
