Re: Idea to relax default ns handling in XPath 1.0

That isn't a relaxation it is just non conformant behaviour.

The proposed feature is broken (and the claim during the thread that
XSLT 1 processors work that way is incorrect).

XSLT2 does have a feature that allows a different interpretation of
unprefixed names in xpaths, but even there they do not match the default
namespace of the source file (which is just totally against the way
Xpath namespace bindings work)
