namespaceURI parameter

Several methods in DOM2 interfaces, e.g. Element.getAttributeNS, has a
namespaceURI. If the element or attribute one want to fetch has no
namespace, should the namespaceURI parameter be null or the empty
string?

As I can see, the current CR is vauge.

In Java there is a clear difference between null and the empty string.
