The decision was a compromise between those who wanted to treat "config" as just a string of characters and those who wanted to interpret it relative to the current base URI. Since these positions were irreconcilable, and such namespaces could not be made illegal, the resolution was to say that documents with such namespaces had no infoset, making them effectively unprocessable.
