[AF] Proposal for issue 386 resolution

Dear all,

The attachment feature document use in several places the att: prefix in 
QNames. This prefix is not defined anywhere in the spec.

I propose solving this issue by adding a table in "1.1 Notational 
conventions" for associating the att prefix to the 
"http://www.w3.org/2002/06/soap/features/attachment" URI. This table 
should be similar to the one found in the SOAP spec in both part 1 and 2.

<proposal>
This specification uses a number of namespace prefixes throughout; they 
are listed in Table 1. Note that the choice of any namespace prefix is 
arbitrary and not semantically significant (see XML InfoSet]).

Table 1: Prefixes and Namespaces used in this specification

Prefix  Namespace                                           Notes
att     http://www.w3.org/2002/06/soap/features/attachment  See ...
</proposal>

Note: as the att: prefix is used for defining property names only, this 
resolution is dependant on the resolution of issue 277 where one 
proposed solution is to change property names from QNames to URIs.

Regards,

Hervé.
