I was going to say the exact same thing=2E It may be especially useful in =
SAX
because many filters fragment the document for you, so the parts may be
taken out of context=2E=20

Additionaly, I would think that the elimination of extra namespace decls
could be removed via filter (read: layer) and it would be just as good (in=

fact didn't Simon St=2E Laurent write one of these?)-- but they can't be
added back in via filter=2E Because of that I would say it would be better=

for an implementation to provide the extra NS decls by default=2E =20

If ElCel does make an option (which seems a good idea) then I should we ad=
d
it to the SAX features=2E It seems to be a very useful option and it would=
 be
good if it was widely supported=2E Another interesting option in this area=

would be to force documents to be "sane" where prefixes are corrected alon=
g
the way=2E But again, this is something a filter could be used for=2E
