Summary: NAnt chokes on namespace prefix use
Initial Comment:
If the xml in a build file uses an explicit namespace
prefix NAnt fails to recognize most of the build file
contents
repro:
<NAnt:project xmlns:NAnt="urn:NAnt-0.85-rc3"
default="choke">
<NAnt:target name="choke">
<NAnt:echo message="you won't see this"/>
</NAnt:target>
</NAnt:project>
The project and target tags are processed OK but
tasks and datatypes are not recognized.

Cause:
when matching the names of xml elements and attributes with
the nant names of tasks, datatypes and properties thereof,
most of the code in NAnt.Core uses the XmlNode.Name
property (which includes the arbitrary prefix) rather than
the XmlNode.LocalName property.
resolution option 1:
replace all references to XmlNode.Name anywhere in the
source by XmlNode.LocalName (the meaningful part).
This is a nasty job because the error is scattered through the
entire codebase. Moreover, even if the bug is eliminated from
NAnt.Core, we can't be sure it isn't repeated other parts for
build elements that do custom xml processing.
resolution option 2:
Load project files in a subclass of XmlDocument that overrides
the Name property of Element and Attributes to yield the
LocalName instead. This should change nothing else than fix
the bug since, as far as I have been able to determine, all of
the xml functionality in the libraries uses only the
combination LocalName+NamespaceUri (as it should).
I'd be happy to supply the sublass.
