variables as nodes? (re: XML Binding Format)

Hi,

I may reopen the already discussed over thing,
but I feel very puzzled to see the variable names
used as the node names in the XML binding format,
i.e. in <result></result> part.

Are all the (possible) variable names adequate as 
the node name?

Can we have variables with such names as
"result", "head", ...?

At least, in the examples in the XML Format document,
the variable names seem to belong to the same name space
as the "result", "head" thing: 
http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/DataAccess/rf1/result.

Sorry for asking such question at this time of the year,
but I prefer  <var name="foo"></var>-ish  thing.

Best,
