Location of schema.xml (outside of bundle)

[gharlan]

At the moment the schema.xml has to be in <bundle>/Resources/config (correct me if I'm wrong).
But I think /app/config/schema.xml should also be considered.

According to the Symfony Best Practices there should be only one bundle for the application logic (called AppBundle) and the global resources should be located in /app (e.g. templates and translation files).

Now, the question is : is the schema.xml (or another propel schema file name) a global resource ? To initiate the reflexion we can look at the Doctrine ORM implementation in Symfony2. The schema definition doesn't require any "configuration" file and it lies in the classes themselves (stored in a bundle).
Even if you store your schema definition file in the app directory you will have to specify the path where you want to store the model classes : in a Bundle...
So, I think the schema.xml file is not a configuration file but a definition file attached to a specific Bundle or the most global application Bundle : the AppBundle.
I understand the idea and the goal, but don't know if it's a real good idea. I'm also interested in knowing your point of view.

As no bundle is required at all, I'm +1 on enabling support for global schema files. Currently I'm putting them into one bundle, so they are at least in one place :)

It's especially useful, if your models do not live inside a bundle.
