    <thetext>Rob Ennals&apos;s Change Proposal suggests that foreign namespaces not officially part of HTML5, must have an @extension attribute:
    
    &lt;my-root-element  xmlns=&quot;http://my-name-space/&quot;  extension=&quot;extension&quot; &gt;

However, in light of the @vendor--feature construct (or @_vendor-feature, bug 9590 is still open), it seems reasonable to let the @extension attribute follow the same shape. E.g. instead of @extension one could use @xml--ns

    &lt;my-root-element  xmlns=&quot;http://my-name-space/&quot;  xml--ns=&quot;xml--ns&quot;  &gt;</thetext>
