Maybe you are saying that an if attribute is in the same namespace as the
element it describes then it is local. Otherwise it is global? In which case
<x:a m='1'/> and <x:a x:m='1'/> and <x:a z:m='1'/> are all the same if x and
z refer to the same namespace? So in <x:a x:m='1'/> and <z:b x:m='1'/> the
first element has a local attribute and the second a global?

The only way I could make this work with my stuff is to introduce a new
namespace for the global attributes. I could do it, but...
