Yes. The dreaded xsd:any. This is one of the difficult parts of the WS-*
specs - over-reliance on xsd:any. Muse can't really change the WSN spec in
that regard, but the spec does provide things like topics (<wsnt:Topic/>),
which allow you to make assumptions about what will be in the message body.
It's not a schema, but it gets you a bit further.

This is the goal of the WSN topics.
