I am in violent agreement with this.
I believe I heard a scream some time ago - the multiple HTML namespace
debate. If a hieararchical HTML namespace mechanism existed,
evelopers simply wanting to match "p" in the sense of good-old HTML
could use a regexp. to find them. Developers interested in
HTML 4.0 "p" would provide more leaves in the hierarchical
namespace specification.
