I don't. Sticking arbitrary namespaces into an element would fail to 
validate against the schema unless it specifically allowed for such 
insertions, e.g., through wildcards.

What NVDL should do is allow you to validate inserted-namespace 
subcomponents that _are_ otherwise valid but are not fully described by 
the schema for Book.
