Anyway, this won't cater for the situation where the publisher wants to insist you do not process the document without be able to process a specified namespace.
If they don't want you to process it, what are they doing putting it on the internet? I'm really lost as to what this situation might be.

What the bloody hell is a "mandatory" "extension" ?
2. Atom has mU. Nobody in the entire community comes up with a really really good mandatory extension. Nobody uses mU and Atom namespace/version also never gets created.
Meanwhile every Atom processor is churning through every element in every document looking for elements it can artificially fail on.
More seriously, define "understand"? Is it OK for me to "understand" an element I do nothing with? Am I going to have to compile a list of extensions I "understand" but am consciously ignoring?
