I always assumed you needed to know what namespaces were in scope to
determine what namespace a particular element was bound to:
<x:root xmlns:x="http://www.example.org/";>
<x:child/>
</x:root>
In the above the in scope namespace for child is "http://www.example.org";
bound to the "x" prefix. Without the in scope namespaces you would need to
redeclare the namespace at every level wouldn't you?
I am not sure what the interpretation of the element is if it is moved out
of the document. Obviously it changes based on context (namespaces that are
in-scope).
Maybe I am misunderstanding...
