AbstractSAXTransformer cleanup:
Make sure namespaceURI is not null

http://www.saxproject.org/?selected=namespaces
If I understand this correctly, a null URI should be used
to denote elements without a namespace (I used to handle
it like that).

Nono: what's explained here is that some parsers may not report the 
qName if their namespace-prefixes property is false. The 
ContentHandler.startElement() javadoc clearly states that the 
namespaceURI *is never null* !

Passing null namespace URIs is a well known source or crashes for Xalan :-/
