Fair enough. I had forgotten that Namespaces 1.0 was republished at the same time as, rather than superceded by Namespaces 1.1. The question here seems to be: if one has in hand something like an XRI, must one in general escape it for use as an XML namespace name? The answer seems to be: no if the software you use supports Namespaces 1.1, yes if your software supports only Namespaces 1.0. That right?
