Nope. Actually I had considered that the solution of it being a Chameleon schema was the correct one but having delved further into the whole product it seems the top level schemas are also without a namespace however the elementFormDefault for them is unqualified. I guess that is a chameleon schema in a way, except without any particular good reason for why it is that way. Ah well. It is all too painful.
