None of those points looks very familiar to me, and they certainly
have not come up much in discussions. I hear two main arguments for
HTML Namespaces:
1. To allow processors to distinguish non-HTML markup in HTML
documents (text/html); and
2. To allow processors to distinguish HTML markup in general XML
documents (text/xml).
I care most about (2), but others care more about (1). They both boil
down to the ability to make an HTML/not-HTML distinction easily.
All the best,
David
