In addition to the cases where a name expression would match a node per XPath
1.0, a name expression match evaluate to matching a node when:
 * The name expression has no namespace.
AND
 * The name expression has local name l.
AND
 * The expression is being tested against an element node.
AND
 * The element node has local name l.
AND
 * The element node has namespace http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml
AND
 * The owner document of the element node is an "HTML document".
This is a willful violation of XPath 1.0.
