The subtree is divorced from its parent, and thus from any ancestor namespace declaration. Note that DOM Level 2 does not use the concept of namespace resolution defined by the Namespace recommendation. Each element/attribute carries his own namespace name (aka namespaceURI in the DOM model) without using the namespace resolution. We don't deal with the possible missings/conflicts in the xmlns prefix declaration. This issue will be resolved by DOM Level 3 with the synchronization with the Infoset.
