Description:
------------
I would be nice if it were possible to have SimpleXML validate a 
document against a schema when you create a new instance of it (optional 
parameter?).

Currently one has to use the DOM, then assuming it is valid convert it 
to a SimpleXML document. Often if one just wants to read/process a 
document SimpleXML is a much nicer solution than the full-blown DOM.

SimpleXML is a simple DOM-wrapper, therefore you can simply convert a SimpleXML document to a DOMDocument without any costs (and vice versa, too), see the documentation for more.
