The original .basic schema did not support extended commands.

The x10.extended schema was proposed as an extension to the .basic schema,
adding support for extended commands through the data1 and data2 body
fields.

However, it was decided by the group to integrate the .extended schema into
the base schema, so there is really no need for the x10.extended schema
anymore.

In fact, I thought the x10.extended schema had been removed from
www.xplproject.org.uk's list of schemas - I'll need to check this out.
