Using the non-namespace-aware DOM methods one can indeed create documents that require a non-namespace-aware XML parser to roundtrip. Since the UA has no idea what sort of XML parser is being used on the server side, I'm not sure it makes sense to bail on attempts to serialize such documents. In particular, if the document _is_ parsed with a non-namespace-aware XML parser, there is no problem. -Boris
