I dont know about Xerces support or XPointer ...
But this link describes whats *supposed* to happen fairly well .. .I
had just stumbled on this the other day ..
http://www.w3.org/TR/xml-id/
It talks about using internal or external DTD's to mark the magic
xml:id
<!ATTLIST someElement
xml:id ID #IMPLIED
>
And appears to work even though DTD's are not namespace aware.,

On the one hand, I don't see how xml:id can work, since that's in a
namespace and DTD's don't understand namespaces. On the other hand, I
could see how someone might modify their processors to understand it since
it's (a) in the core namespace; and (b) everyone handles namespaces these
days.
So I'd consider this a fairly reasonable enhancement request.
