Remaining items for v5.2 Committee Spec

Proposed an optional attribute of namespace (or ns or nsref) to all the syntactic elements (the new ones as well as the existing ones like variable and constant) including namespace, since namespaces can
 contain other namespaces.

The namespace attribute should point at an xml:id on a namespace element.
