There's nothing special about the default namespace. If you're XML processing depends on giving the default namespace special semantics then you misunderstand how Namespaces in XML works.

	Heh. The namespace axis wont tell you it's the *default* namespace so
	you don't know if you have already handled that for the contect node (or
	one of it's ancestors).
	
	Stuff like
	
	<xsl:if test="not(ancestor::*[namespace-uri()=$nsUri]) and $nsUri != ''">
	 <xsl:apply-templates select="." mode="ns-resolve"/>
	</xsl:if>
	
	are irritating.
