     *      A JAXB implementation generates an unique file name (like "schema1.xsd")
     *      for the convenience of the callee. This name can be
     *      used for the file name of the schema, or the callee can just

     *      This is just a hint.

     *
     *      If the {@link Result} object has a system ID, it must be an
     *      absolute system ID. Those system IDs are relativized by the caller and used
     *      for <xs:import> statements.
     *
     *      If the {@link Result} object does not have a system ID, a schema
     *      for the namespace URI is generated but it won't be explicitly
     *      <xs:import>ed from other schemas.
     *
     *      If {@code null} is returned, the schema generation for this
     *      namespace URI will be skipped.
