Hello,

Has anyone mentioned shadow attributes?

As it happens the XSLT 3.0 spec gives this as an example use case for
shadow attributes https://www.w3.org/TR/xslt-30/#shadow-attributes.

_xpath-default-namespace="{ $set-a-namespace }"

Like other solutions, that perhaps eases the problem without solving it.

I would probably use the approach Mike Kay recommends, a pipeline in which
an XSLT could perform whatever adjustments are called for. (Since there may
also be others.)

Good luck, Wendell
