Apparently enough of them to stop libreoffice even starting if we don't
pass through namespace names un-modified ;-)

Would be great; but I'm wary of pulling too much un-related string into
the GSOC project; Mohammed had a number of other cases I think where
this caused grief. A quick poke around shows:
$ git grep '"toolbar:'
$ git grep '"menu:'
Are rather suggestive of problems; though no idea what parser they use.
Ideally we'd move everyone to the XFastParser - it's faster ;-) in
due-course, but again - I'd rather get some of the threaded parsing
XFastParser wins for ODF - than drain this swap as part of the project.
Volunteers welcome to hunt & kill broken NS handling though !
ATB,
Michael.
