 In XQuery (unlike XSLT) setting xmlns="abcd" on an output element also causes "abcd" to be the default namespace for unprefixed element names in XPath expressions appearing within its scope. This gives you a bit of a problem if your input and output are in different namespaces. If one of them is in the null namespace and the other in a non-null namespace, then you don't really have any choice but to bind xmlns="", that is, to make unprefixed names refer to the null namespace. (And in turn, this gives you a problem when generating XHTML, which has a DTD that requires you to use unprefixed names bound to a non-null namespace.) If the input and output are in different non-null namespaces, then you can use unprefixed names for either the input or the output but not for both. Hope that's clear!
