Description Joanne Tong 2006-01-11 18:46:40 UTC
Since there is no mechanism for setting the XML version of an XML island, and 
the current text says pieces of XML inside HTML must be output as XML with 
additional rules that namespace nodes and namespace-prefixed QNames should 
follow the rules of XML 1.0, it's not clear why undeclaring prefixes is 
permissible for XML islands.

Suggested resolution: modify section 7.4.7 (HTML Output Method: the undeclare-
prefixes Parameter) where it should say the undeclare-prefixes parameter is 
not applicable to the HTML output method with no exception.
