This may constitute an attempt to bring Xalan into closer conformity with the
XPath specs, particularly section 5.4 (but also see 5.2 and 5.3 for context).
Namespace nodes only hang off elements. An attribute node is a two-item
structure containing its own name (QName) and string value.

XSLT 2.0 will provide much better capabilities for this kind of work.
