I'm not sure - this example don't work with my XSLT processor  
(libxslt  V10111).
Maybe it is only a libxslt problem?
---- xsl ---
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                 xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
								xmlns="http://moki.mobi/2007/v0.1">

    <xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"/>

    <xsl:template match="/">
      <test name="namespace"><xsl:value-of select="/moki"/></test>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
---- xml -----
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<moki xmlns="http://moki.mobi/2007/v0.1">moki</moki>

This don't not work with my XSLT processor.
I tested it with <xsl:value-of select="//docContent//html:html"/>.
Is this working with your XSLT processor?

thats right - how should we handle unknown namespaces?
(I know some mobile pages, that contains namespaces on different  
elements, generated by their output engines [of course, not our  
engine ;-)]. )
