Common XML [1] started with a core - one I now suspect may be too big, largely because of namespaces - and then described layers beyond that core. That might be a good operation to perform on Len's favored XML-SW early on; I suspect doing that might well lead to the 'unbundling' of namespaces, xml:xyz, and the infoset.
