I'd like to see namespace support in SAX; however, I'd prefer not to
implement it by piling that functionality into parsers, creating yet
another monolith. While the monoliths survive, I think we can do better.
For a discussion of how this might work, see my rough essay "Toward A
Layered Model for XML", available at
http://www.simonstl.com/articles/layering/layered.htm. If you just want a
quick look at a picture that adds namespace support to a possible set of
layered event-based processes, see
