Use of XML was actually a conscious choice on my part. Ditch the puritanical or egalitarian thoughts. Odds of two XML parsing libraries loaded into the same instance is rare. I imagined there would be little to no contention for the XML namespace because everyone would've treated it as holy. Bah! A "User" identifier is holy, but XML is not (one is application, the other is library). I think the above 'LibXML'-ification of the namespace is appropriate, however, but focus on making the library easy to use, hence XML vs LibXML.

Right, works for me.

Don't step on other people's dicks intentionally, but it's okay for the library to be assertive and to match its ambitions. Tip-toeing around 'what if' is an endless rabbit hole. We'll adapt and find a solution if there is a problem at some point in the future. Cool?

Well, considering libxml has been around 2002, seems like we have first dibs!
