RE: Lesson Learned: Use namespaces for both markup anddata

I wonder if anyone has any insight into how often the "embeddability" of
namespaces gets used.  In other words, if it weren't possible to include
namespace declarations on any element (but only, say on the root element, or
via some other document-scoped mechanism), would that be a major pain?  In
my experience, documents are not usually being produced by pasting text, but
by an xml-aware processor that is capable of managing declarations at the
document level.
