James Clark: >You have to be able to find the inherited value of namespace declaring >attributes; this is no different from what you already have to do for >xml:lang and xml:space. I hate to say this, but I didn't hear peals of joy surrounding xml:lang and xml:space processing. Indeed, XML-Dev was pretty well covered in complaints about inheritance of attributes and the fun it creates for both event-based parsers and tools that extract subsections of documents (XPointers, for instance.) Just because it's already there doesn't mean it was a delightful idea in the first place. Since James also wrote "You are wasting your time suggesting alternative designs," I'll stick to implementation and documentation.
