another possibility would be for xpath 2+n to relax the element() node
test to allow compile time constant expressions rather than just
qname-or-wildcard.

/element(QName('http://p1.uri'),'a')[1]/element(QName('http://p2.uri','b')[2]/element(QName('http://p2.uri','c')[1]

although looking at it, I'm not sure that's really any better than 

/*[namespace-uri()='http://p1.uri' and local-name()='a']/....

which works already of course.
