I don't agree with this.  '/etc/schema' is an arbitrary location whose name
does not belie its purpose.  In other words, a 'schema' directory that resides
directly beneath '/etc' is an unqualified name.

Agreed.  How about this:
  /etc/[fedora-ds|fds]/schema/{default,custom}

That way, there would be no question about where to place custom schema files.
