Nice in theory, but not nice in the IETF.

1) the IETF standards track provides strict controls on updating documents.

2) updates never happen quickly.  The editor queue alone would be too
   long to change something.

One solution would be to host the XSD elsewhere and reference it, but
that's likely not acceptable from a standards process either.
