No. Say in your XSL the XHTML elements have a namespace of "gunk"
then the generic transform would basically be:
<xsl:template match="gunk:*">
<xsl:element name="{local-name()}">
<xsl:copy-of select="@*"/>
<xsl:apply-templates select="*"/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>
that will strip the namespace off the XHTML elements and send them to
the front end, so that an H1 is an H1 a P is a P, etc. Anything with
a different name space gets handled according to whatever custom logic
you need.
