I asked how to get this:
<root xmlns="http://example.com/foo";>
<foo>
<blah/>
</foo>
</root>
rather than this:
<foo:root xmlns:foo="http://example.com/foo";>
<foo xmlns="http://example.com/foo";>
<blah/>
</foo>
</foo:root>
i.e. with no more namespace attributes than necessary.

Unfortunately this doesn't work; I get exactly the same output.
Andrew Welch suggested:

This does work - thanks Andrew - but I'm not keen on changing the
namespace prefixes for all the literal elements like this; I was hoping
for an easier way, such as an attribute on xsl:output or something like
that.
More googling has found the xsl:namespace element in 2.0. Is this
useful for this problem? Is there anything else I can do?
Cheers,
