In what way would the XHTML 1.0/1.1 spec **disallow** the use of
this element from the xml namespace? It's not *part of* the spec,
but that's a different matter, right?
xml:lang and xml:base are the actual attribute names – the XML
namespace exists so they work within namespace aware parsers (as XML-
Names is a separate spec that extends XML) – therefore, it must be
explicitly allowed within the DTD (like xml:lang is).
