As I wrote, I did test it with libxml2.

Furthermore, if this construct is used (i.e. xs:extension) the
original filter definition validates just fine even for xpath,
i.e. there would be no need to add the 'select' attribute.  (Not that I
have any problems with the 'select' attribute).

I don't follow that logic.  Are you suggesting that this is special
only for the empty filter, but not when you have some subelements?
Thus, would

  <filter type="subtree"><top xmlns="http://foo.com"/></filter>

be identical to 

  <filter type="subtree">
    <top xmlns="http://foo.com"/>
  </filter>

or not?
