> JXPath 1.2 does not handle the default namespace correctly. There is no way to
> set the default namespace on a context, so xpath expressions with unprefixed
> node-selections do not match the default namespace.
> Eg:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
> <test xmlns="http://test">
>   <child-element />
> </test>
> This is valid xml, with default namespace 'http://test'
> If the following xpath expression is used: '/test/childelement', it will not
> match the child-element element in this xml file.
> There appears to be no way to use the function JXPathContext.registerNamespace()
> to associate a default namespace with the context.
> The programmer is forced to introduce a namespace prefix for JXPath, the xpath
> expression 'foo:test/foo:child-element' will correctly match the element if 
> JXPathContext.registerNamespace("foo","http://test") is called first.
> This is, IMHO, a bug.
