Description Anne 2012-04-06 09:12:45 UTC 
Since setAttribute() does no checks for them (see bug 16493), shall we remove them from setAttributeNS() or is it not worth the hassle?
Comment 1 Anne 2012-05-15 11:10:14 UTC 
Nobody cares it seems. Lets keep these checks so the amount of weird trees one can create remains the same.
