I was going to do something along those lines, but I ended up using my own doctype and removing the namespace declaration. Everything is all pretty and namespaceless. I wouldn't mind switching the doctype to a standard xhtml doctype when I serialize. Is that possible? If not, do you know if there are implications as far as browsers go? XPATH really needs to have a definable default namespace, or xhtml doctype needs to not have a "fixed" namespace or something...
As for DOM4J, it might be nice to be able to set a default namespace for createElement in DocumentHelper and DocumentFactory. Just a thought.
