Henry's response:

This should be clarified in the REC -- the intention is that unprefixed names 
are qualified iff there is a default namespace declaration in scope, i.e. as 
per element names, not attribute names, in XML 1.0 plus Namespaces.

The definition should also make clear that the value space includes pairs 
of "no known namespace", local name, which correspond to unprefixed QNames when 
no default declaration is in scope.

Resolution:
Henry Thompson to draft erratum text reflecting discussion above.
