I actually got it a little wrong myself -- I forgot to make the prefix
into the local name for the node.  From what I remember of James
Clark's general approach (remember that James is primarily responsible
for the XPath and XSLT specs), I'll guess that the Namespace axis is
present to help with processing QNames in attribute values or
character-data content.


All the best,
