.xsd comments in xsd.exe generated wrapper class

I have an xsd file in my csproj, from which xsd.exe generates a wrapper cs file.

I'd like to comment the xsd file in a way, that the comments are also inserted into the generated wrapper class, so VS intellisense can be used effectively.

Is this possible using xsd.exe?

Apparently this seems to be not possible with xsd.exe:

When generating source code from an XML Schema document, Xsd.exe ignores the <appinfo> element and its contents.
The same is true for the parent of the <appinfo> element, <annotation>.

I tried and I didn't find any way to force xsd.exe to spit out any documentation contained in the schema.

UPDATE

I will try out XsdDataContractImporter - maybe this offers more control over code generation from xsd schema.
