Jan 23, 2014 at 14:58 comment added user76758 Artin's result in the case of formal completion at a point doesn't require any smoothness hypothesis. By using Popescu's generalization of Artin approximation, the proof adapts to work etale-locally on $S$ (to get a common pointed etale neighborhood when there's a common point-completion over one on $S$) if $S$ is excellent. But in the smooth case, at least Zariski-locally, can't we just take $U$ to be the fiber square of etale maps of $X$ and $Y$ to an affine space (respecting sections), avoiding Artin approximation entirely?
Jan 23, 2014 at 14:28 comment added Jason Starr The global sections might cause problems. Are you allowing to base change by an 'etale cover of $S$?
