D3C: setting Node.prefix on non-namespaced node types

Description:
The current DOM Level 3 Core specification is unclear how to handle 
setting Node.prefix for node types that do not have a concept of 
namespaces like text nodes. Like in ISSUE-115 it says both that doing 
so has no effect and that it would result in a NAMESPACE_ERR. For 
additional complexity, what if the node is read-only?
