There are two issues here: the DOM, and the output of an XML serializer.

The DOM does not automatically create namespace declaration attributes. If you 
want those to appear at specific places, create them yourself.

On the other hand, an XML serializer should notice when a prefix has been used 
which is not in the scope of an already-existing declaration, and synthesize the 
declaration attribute at some appropriate location; otherwise it has not 
produced a correct XML representation of the DOM's contents.

Again: See the DOM Level 3 working draft for some proposed algorithms. If the 
Xerces serializer doesn't already follow those approaches, that could indeed be 
considered a bug (or at least an enhancement request).

Of course if you're writing your own serializer, it's your responsiblity to deal 
with this appropriately.
