One reason for using the infoset rather than XPath 1.0 is that it provides
[prefix] and [namespace attributes] properties that allow us to ignore the
effects of namespace processing.

The subset I believe we need is

document[document element]
element[local name, prefix, children, attributes, namespace attributes]
attribute[local name, prefix, normalized value]
character[character code]

I think it would be sufficient if the spec (probably in an Annex) gave an

Absolutely.
