Add some way to specify where external references are to resolve to

[Tomas-Kraus]

My specific problem is with W3X XML Schema imports, where the schemalocation might be an unreachable url, a no longer existant file on disk, etc., but where the actual schema is reachable in some other place (a resource in the classpath, a file elsewhere on disk, etc.) but as Kohsuke Kawaguchi indicated in https://jaxb.dev.java.net/servlets/ BrowseList?list=users&by=thread&from=706333 this might be classed as a larger issue of external references in general. There is currently no way to specify an alternative location for these schemas, and I would like that. Either some method of searching (by filename, or namespace, in the classpath or working directory) or explicitly naming the location for individual schemas.
