Hmmm, interesting.

I tried this with Saxon EE 9.5.1.2:

    <xsl:template match="/top/namespace-node()">
        <a>Hi, mom!</a>
    </xsl:template>

and got the following error:

"The child axis will never select any namespace nodes."

But 9298#2 is quite clear.  Does anyone else believe it was ever overturned?
