This is an XPath FAQ. Without a ns prefix, XPath doesn't choose
elements living in the default ns, but ones living in no namespace.
Otherwise, you have problems with:
<root>
<foo/>
<foo xmlns="bar"/>
</root>
What would /root/foo be, the first, the second, both? And if this
example is resolvable, what happens to:
<root>
<foo>
<qxx/>
</foo>
<foo xmlns="bar">
<qxx/>
</foo>
</root>
And /root/foo/qxx? Do you select qxx in the default ns? Or not?
