DOMParser does not exclude namespace alias from tagnames.

For org.w3c.dom.Document retrieved as follows:

---
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();

parser.parse("test.xml");
Document document = parser.getDocument();
---

from attached file "test.xml" we'll have that 
document.getDocumentElement().getTagName() equals "myns:root", not 
"root". Is it a bug or may be i just forgot to set a feature?

No, this is not a bug. When you request for the TagName, you get the
TagName. To get only the localpart of the QName, use, .getLocalName().
