How about prefix and localname? Wouldn't those be considered part of the
markup, and appropriate class names for tag?
How about a namespace attribute:
xmlns=http://docbook.org/ns/docbook
Wouldn't that be marked with tag with class="attribute"? It is part of the
markup in a document.

I think Jirka is right. I currently use <uri> for XML namespaces for the
very reasons cited. The namespace is not a tag or a proper part of the
markup.
I do not think that a provision should be made in <tag> for namespaces.
Perhaps it can be added to <uri>'s type attribute...

I still think that
<uri type="xmlnamespace">http://docbook.org/ns/docbook</uri>
is much more proper way of marking namespace. Namespace
itself is not "tag", nor other part of markup.
