Just to raise teh fact that XLink does not depend on XPointer,
thus xpointer yes, xlink no.

Perhaps I misunderstood, but it seems to me that unless a document
conforms to the namespace rec then the namespaced xlink attributes
are not going to get recognised, so documents that have element names
with two : can't be used with xlink can they?
(ie same result, but not quite for the reason stated)
Note this is different from the situation with xml:base as that using
the magic xml prefix doesn't require namespace processing to be
recognised, so xml:base can work with documents that don't conform to
the namespaec rec.
