A namespace processor is going to have functions that it calls to expand element type names and qualified attribute names. All that's needed is that the namespace processor, in addition to calling these functions to expand strings that it knows to be element type names and attribute names, make these functions available to applications so that applications can call them to expand strings that the application knows to be element type names and attribute names. I suspect there will be a similar issue with XPointers. If I say: href="http://...#descendant(17,foo:bar)" I would expect that the expanded element type names to be matched, not the prefixes. That would mean that to interpret the XPointer, an application would need the namespace prefix to namespace URI mapping in effect for the element to which href attribute is attached.
