I don't see any utility in the ns prefix ideas though James? 


Two major use cases: 

- Global attributes (xlink:*, xml:*).

- Interleaving elements from different vocabularies, as in XSLT.  It would be pretty painful to use xmlns for this.

Not sure if I made myself clear here. I was thinking of something like

<xsl:template  ...>
   <table>
      <xsl:for-each ...>
          <tr>
              <xsl:for-each ...>
                   <td>
                       <xsl:value-of .../>
 


But maybe these cases are on the wrong side of the 80/20 line for MicroXML.
