I think you do need to create a new namespace for these. Each would give
you multiple definitions of the same variable within the same namespace,
which makes no more sense for XML than it does for a programming language.
Note that an inheritance scheme might work, but the new element would
exist in your namespace, not the one the supertype inhabits.
