Testing on S-1.5RC2-200605010522, I opened a file in the WSDL editor and clicked the arrow to go into the schema. Once in the schema I could not find a way to get back to the WSDL view.
Of course right after I submitted this I discovered that the inline XSD editor is actually a separate editor now. Seems to me that it's unintuitive to have two editors open for the same file (the XSD editor actually has the same WSDL source view). I think it would be preferable to keep all editing of a single document confined to a single editor. Can a new tab/page be opened in the WSDL editor when editing an inline schema? And I still think there should be some way of hyperlinking from the inline schema view back to the WSDL view. I've downgraded the severity of the defect to normal and updated the summary.
Let's look at the feedback we get on this issue and revisit our approach.
Actually, it would be very nice to have this in some tab view instead of opening another editor. Not sure exactly how to accomplish this, especially since the two design views are pretty different. The issue is componded when you have multiple schemas from multiple namespaces that you may need to navigate through. It's not uncommon for me to have a WSDL that may use schemas from about 12 different namespaces. As you add more and more WS-* specis like WS-Reliable Messaging, and WS-MakeConnection, etc, the problem just grows.
