Is there ever a need to retain namespace declarations for namespaces
that are not actually used in the result document, i.e. for which there
is no element with that namespace?  I think the idea is to just delete
extraneous namespace declarations, not to delete them all...


I could see both options.  There are some cases where I really don't
need any namespaced elements at all on my output (eg, stuff I'm
manipulating for AJAX code).  We strip them out with XSLT at the
moment, but...
