I think Bob was just suggesting that the result of the parse would be
p:someText - which happens to be in a context where the p namespace is
http://myns - rather than a fully expanded value like {http://myns ,
someText}.

The namespace context information is available from the parser in both
DOM and SAX, but only a PSVI-based processor would know to present a
QName value space for QNames in element content rather than a text value
and available context.
