We have had some discussions on the pros and cons of more publically
documenting this interface, but for now you can find the documentation
in the source, in devel/schemata.

At this point I'm open to people who either want to convert that
document to rst and integrate it with the published docs, or convince me
it's a bad idea. I think the idea was that we wanted to avoid commiting
to that interface, but since we already version it like a C library, I'm
a bit fuzzy on why that's a problem.
