For users with no network connection, or slow network connections, this is important. Similar to the "--nonet" option on xmllint (from libxml), provide the ability to prohibit all attempts to retrieve {schemas, DTDs, etc.} from the net during validation. Of course this may make some resources impossible to validate, but at least it will be possible to skip a fruitless attempt to use the net when conditions are not favorable.
This defect doesn't belong to validation framework, it is upto individual validator on how they implement it.
Peter, an enhancement request for the cache.
I'm not sure we need this at badly as we used to, since we ship most schemas/dtds that are commonly needed. But, if anyone wants to dig through it all to implement, have at it.
