That's fine, but my question was perhaps of a more generic nature. Specific
XML vocabularies are of course entitled to decide that they have an
attribute functionally equivalent to HTML's class so that specialized
processors will know that they must apply .classes. However, in the case of
a generic XML+CSS browser, would it be correct/a good idea/recommendable to
apply a given style to an element if it had a xhtml:class='class' attribute ?

anything about sex, it won't do you any good to know a lot about bathtubs.
