The thing is that you also want to add xmlns="" stuff to HTML as I

But would you say there are any 'harmful' effects on the document?
After all, it's no different to putting the attribute 'banana' onto an
element, and then using the URI stored in the attribute as a unique
identifier for some prefix substitution.

Not on the document, but certainly on document authors. And we can't move namespace processing (at that level) into text/html. It has been tried, and it failed miserably on the web.
