I need to harness my bug filing efforts ... In the mean time, some new 
info:

http://www.amplesdk.com/examples/aml/maps/

The page is served as text/HTML (more specifically with the HTML5 
doctype) - to all Web browsers, and implements AmpleSDK's XML language 
- AML - with namespaces and everything, inside the <script> element.

Perhaps limiting namespaces to the <script> element and children of the 
<script> element is worth a shot? (My 2.5 cent.)

(Thanks to Shelley for her SVG articles at A List Apart, with reference 
to the very interesting Ample SDK.)
