namespaces always have a name. Whether that namespace is the default in
any particular document is just a feature of that document not a feature
of the namespace.
If there is a default namespace declared you can always make an
equivalent document that uses a prefix (and prefixes the elements)
Going the other way given a document in which every namespace is bound
to a prefix you can always take one of the namespaces and add a default
declaration for that namespace and remove that prefix from all the
elements.Of course you have to leave any attributes
prefixed and leave in the original prefix binding for the namespace
if there were any attributes in the namespace.
