'Normalizing' namespace declarations

[Software AG <sa...@stark-verlag.de>]

Hi there.

I've obtained documents by Xalan XSLT that has been made up with namespaces.
The documents look something like this:

<?xml version="1.0">
<root>
 <element xmlns:a="http://someurl"></element>
 <element xmlns:a="http://someurl"></element>
</root>

<?xml version="1.0">
<root>
 <element xmlns:a="http://someurl">
  <a:b>somecontent</a:b>
 </element>
 <element xmlns:a="http://someurl">
  <a:b>somecontent</a:b>
  <a:b>somecontent</a:b>
  <a:b>somecontent</a:b>
 </element>
</root>

These documents contain more namespace declarations than necessary. Here I'd
like to normalize, means to reduce the namespace declarations to 1 by moving
them to the root node. How is this possible?
