The latest version (2.00) of the Haskell XML Toolbox supports namespaces,
namespace handling is done by separate functions, there is one function
to propagating the namespace uri's down a tree and decorating tag names and 
attribute names, a second function can be used to check namespace conformance
with respect to the w3c recommendation. Additional filters are available
for selection of tag names and attribute names via namespaces.
