RE: use cases

David,

I will review the example.  What the namespaces file in my example is supposed to do is assign un-prefixed instances of href,src,type,rel,hreflang,method and tref to the xml namespace, _as if they were in that namespace_, ahem, so that their semantics are defined by documentation found at that URI, as well as the unobtrusive namespaces file also found at that URI.

If that didn't come through, I will clean it up.

Peter

That was my original understanding of Liam's proposal which was why I
questioned the usage which appeared to be specifying namespaces for
unprefixed attributes, as there is no equivalent for that in standard
xml+namespace processing.
