Could we tag the "name-postfix/name-prefix/name-space" as
a InternString or other class to make the requirement explicit?
InternString could have *private* constructor, and a static
factory method to ensure that the policy is enforced. Too bad
String is final. Is there another singular point of control
that can be seized upon to shield application-emitters?
Perhaps a QName object?
