Never mind, I just answered my own question.
I just looked at the xml schema draft and realized they'd solved the
type issue there. So, to answer my own question, a new IDL langauge
is not needed, because xml schemas allow types to be specified.
This seems to be the important new feature that schemas have that
DTD's don't, that allow things like soap to happen.
