> Algorithm to normalize namespace prefixes This fails if the document you are normalising makes use of prefixes in places you haven't normalised. For example if the document happens to be an XSL stylesheet it will have XPath expressions all over the place, and prefixes appearing in namespace-alias attributes etc. In general how are you to know in a general XML document where th enamespace prefixes are? any string might be (say) a URI employing XPointer. If you remap the prefixes in the declarations but not in the XPointer, you break the link.
