I don't XMLBeans well enough yet, but namespace nodes aren't
attributes so I doubt you could change the namespace using an
attribute method...
Have a look at setName(new QName("http://www.namespace.com";, "ZFI ", ""))
Alternatively, (and probably the way I would do this sort of task) is
to use XSLT - use an indentity transform with a special template that
matches ZFI.
