This requires that the urn:jboss:spring-beans:2.0 is a pure superset of the http://www.springframework.org/schema/beans schema. Difficult to guarentee that given that its not even a versioned namespace. You're right. Currently we don't support all of the features of the Spring schema - I'm working on it, but I think we will never support them 100%. Some things are plain unnecessary or would require move into something we basically don't need or take us too much time for little gained.
