Surely if there are 10 definitions for a given prefix and 10 prefix definitions
for a given namespace and they are all different then that woul be a problem
wouldnt it.
Not really. For an xpath you could use each of them. The point for me is to
have the chance to have all namespaces with prefixes that could be needed by an
xpath for the given document (or branch). And in most cases you have only the
ones from your document and this will be better as for example use all
namespaces from the namespace cache wich means the namespaces from all
documents that where created since the vm start (and this will result in many
problems with doubled prefixes).

assuming that you can cope with overlaps, are you proposing to try each
combination and see think ones work. That could be a lot of options
x:n1/x:n2/x:n3/x:n4 would take 10000 options if x has 10 mapping would it not.
