That'd take care of most of my arguments regarding base URI contexts, though I'd still two key questions: 1) What's the base URI of a defaulted attribute? 2) What to do when there's no base URI? Answer those two, and I think we can trust applications to do their own absolutization, leaving parsers with a safe but unchanged literal approach.
