XMLBeans claims "100% support of XML Schema". But from what I've seen in
this thread, it appears to ignore the internal structure of
complexTypes, so that this:
<xs:element name="name">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:element name="nameElement" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="nameValue" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
is intentionally treated the same as this:
<xs:element name="name">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="nameElement"
maxOccurs="unbounded" type="xs:string"/>
<xs:element name="nameValue"
maxOccurs="unbounded" type="xs:string"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
If that's true it's a major flaw in XMLBeans, and pretty much rubbishes
the schema support claim.
I realize that by changing the schema you can manipulate XMLBeans into
producing something that creates the intended XML structure. But the
reason people use XMLBeans in the first place is because it's supposed
to create that structure automatically.

compositors?
I'm sorry, elements in a sequence *are* *sorted*, shame on me for the
false information (When I learned xml-schema I was told that they are
not ordered, but they are as I read today...)
The solution for Maya may be a schema which generates this output:
<Name>
<NameComponent>
<NameValue>NameValue</NameValue>
<NameElement>Name</NameElement>
</NameComponent>
<NameComponent>
<NameValue>NameValue1</NameValue>
<NameElement>Name1</NameElement>
</NameComponent>
</Name>
This would keep the order, but there is one more Type called
"NameComponent".
Another solution could be:
<Name>
<NameComponent element="foo">fooValue</NameComponent>
<NameComponent element="bar">barValue</NameComponent>
</Name>
