--- Comment #1 from Leif Halvard Silli <xn--mlform-iua@xn--mlform-iua.no> ---
One, perhaps negative, issue to consider:

For <svg xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">, then one can use the
following CSS selector to select the element - in both HTML and in XHTML:

   [*|xlink]{ … }

But for <html xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">, one would have to
use one selector for HTML, and another selector for XHTML:

     [xlink],     /* for HTML */
   [*|xlink]{ … } /* for XML  */
