Every URI is an IRI by definition. So all URIs that are in use can be
used with Atom without any problems even if the spec says we use IRIs.
Replacement is definitely not the right term.

>(for instance, I also think that the introduction into XMLNS 1.1 was a 
mistake).

Well, I might agree that it was a mistake. Observable behavior for
most implementations (in particular XSLT implementations, where you
most easily can test actual namespace behavior) allows IRIs in
namespaces anyway, so this could just have been a clarification
to the XMLNS 1.0 spec, rather than bumping up the number.
