Note that what you quoted above was not about throwing away namespaces

XHTML namespace.
If all we're doing is HTML, fine. However people are now in this thread
talking about putting MathML into this. In other forums people are
discussing adding XForms. If I'm wrong and people are not suggesting
that MathML and XForms and similar non-HTML things end up in the HTML
namespace, then please tell me that. I;'d be very happy to know that.
I've no idea about XForms, but the plan for MathML is that you can write
it without bothering about namespaces, but that it ends up having
namespaces in the DOM.
However what I'm hearing is that people do want to mix in different
vocabularies such as MathML and XForms without using namespaces, and
that seems to me to be very unwise.
