I'm not sure I understand the full extent of the issue discussed in that 
blog post (the web has become ... complicated in the last 20 years), but 
this looks like exactly the sort of problem that XMLNS was designed for 
(ahem!).

I know from personal experience the sort of headaches that XMLNS can 
cause, but they seem as nothing to the sort of pluck-out-my-eyes 
solution that that post is clearly ambling innocently towards.  What big 
angle-brackets you have, grandma...

All the best,

Norman
