How do I make an extension xsd for the web/app.config schema?

Question

How do I make a schema for custom config sections? I tried making one, but when I used it, it said the only expected element was what I had in that schema, and complained about the standard web.config stuff, even though I was still using the normal DotNetConfig.xsd file too.

When I tried this, it didn't work. The configuration system assumes that everything is in the default namespace, and chokes if it's not. It's very disappointing.
