One thing to keep in mind is that while XMLStreamReader has to keep track of the full namespace context (to do proper namespace binding), getNamespaceXxx(int) methods only give information about specification declarations for the current element. Thus, if declaration for a prefix was done in an ancestor element, that information is not accessible using those methods. If such information is needed, calling application has to keep similar stack, but I guess that's not a very common use case?
