Right, that is saying exactly that even though an unprefixed attribute
is not *in* the namespace of its element, one can easily identify
a conventional package of information that provides an unambiguous
Id of what kind of attribute this is; the package includes the
information about the type and namespace of the attached element, but
I repeat: in the sense the spec uses the word namespace, an unprefixed
attribute is NOT IN ANY NAMESPACE. That's why the following is legal:
<!-- http://www.w3.org is bound to n1 and is the default -->
<x xmlns:n1="http://www.w3.org"
xmlns="http://www.w3.org" >
<good a="1" b="2" />
<good a="1" n1:a="2" />
</x>
