[Mono-list] Enumerating over XmlSchemaComplexType.AttributeUses should return DictionaryEntry objects?

Thanks, good catch again. I am going to fix.

Yes, XmlSchemaObjectTable and XmlSchemaObjectCollection looks different 
in this context.

Basically, I think. However, we should not always rely on their concrete 
behavior. They might change their concrete logic (even though they are 
likely to create new classes, putting old classes aside). So we should 
demand compatibility as long as it is rational. (For example, we should 
not raise an error for new Uri ("/home/atsushi/test.xml") .)
