Some feature types get their namespaces glued on at publishing time. Some have their namespace as an intrinsic property; for example, app-schema feature types. You think you have problems: a DataAccess can provide feature types with qualified names in different namespaces. See DataAccess: "List<Name> getNames()". Given that a workspace and thus data store are named by the namespace prefix, if you want multiple namespaces from a single DataAccess, you are stuffed. For example, I can create a single DataAccess that returns a gsml:MappedFeature and a sa:SamplingPoint. In which workspace can this live? The workaround is to Not Do That Then, and instead proliferate DataAccesses, one per feature type. The catalog implementation prevents a legitimate use of the DataAccess API.
