We agree that we disagree. DOM applications can and should be written to be able to operate successfully against a DOM that does not contain namespace declaration attributes. Not all have been, or have been updated to be so.. Then again, not all have been (re)written to be properly namespace-aware at all; that isn't the DOM's fault either.
