That's the gist of it.  I should clarify that the validation problems
really only pop up when I am required to use qualified attributes.  I
think a way to address this would be to have a function to bridge to
DOM.  DOM allows you to control prefixes.  How hard would it be to add
a new function:

DOMDocument SDO_DAS_XML::saveDOM(SDO_XMLDocument $xdoc)

Just writing to a string and file can be somewhat limiting.

Thanks,
